The S&P 500 gained 106 points last week. I was also expecting it to advance this week.
Here is the expected breakdown for the week of July 07, 2025, to July 11, 2025.
Moon is the compressed Vimshottri dasha planet for July 07 – 09, occupying the eleventh house in the sign Pisces. It makes a trine aspect with Mercury occupying the third house. It makes a square aspect with the Sun, also. As a result, the market may go slightly higher during these days.
Mars is the next dasha planet for July 10 – 11, which occupies the fifth house in the Virgo sign. Mars is a malefic planet and is weak because it has just entered the sign. It makes a sextile aspect with Jupiter and a square aspect with Uranus. As a result, the market may go lower during these days.
Transits during this week:
The Sun transits Cancer during this week. On Monday, the Moon transits through Sagittarius. The Moon trines Mercury and makes an opposite aspect with Venus. The stock market may rise on Monday.
On Tuesday, Mars continues to transit in Virgo, getting closer to Ketu day by day. But it makes a sextile aspect with the Sun. So, Tuesday may be a flat day for the markets.
Mercury is now in the middle of Leo, and getting ready to be retrograde next week. It makes no astrological aspect this week. Wednesday may, therefore, be a flat day.
Jupiter advanced into its sign of exaltation, Cancer, just three weeks ago. It makes a square aspect with retrograde Neptune. Jupiter is not in a state of combustion anymore. Thursday, therefore, may be a slightly higher day.
Venus is advancing fast in Gemini, a sign it likes. It is also not making any close aspect. Friday, the market may go slightly lower. Saturn has now moved into Aries and is about to turn retrograde next week. This can cast a negative effect on the markets on Friday.
By combining the transit and CVD techniques, I have estimated the daily behavior of the stock market to be as follows.
Monday: Slightly higher; Tuesday: Slightly higher; Wednesday: Slightly higher; Thursday: Lower; Friday: Lower .
