The S&P 500 added 196 points last week. I was not right this week. Monday was strongly higher, and it made my forecast wrong even though I was correct for the other days of the week.
Here is the expected breakdown for the week of November o9, 2026, to November 13, 2026.
1. Vimshottri periods in the NYSE chart: Mercury/Rahu/Mercury/Saturn until November 19: Stocks can go lower, particularly semis, software and health care stocks.
2. Monthly Solar Return Chart since October 20:
The Sun is next in line in the CVD schemes. Its period runs until November 16. It is in Libra and ot occupies the tenth house. It makes a trine aspect with Rahu occupying the second house. Therefore, the stock market may decline.
Moon is the next planet in the CVD scheme. Its control period runs from November 17 to November 18. It occupies the second house, and is in Aquarius. It is aspected by Jupiter present in the eighth house. Moon is a benefic planet, and it is blessed by Jupiter. Markets can thus do higher.
A new monthly solar return chart applies from November 19 to December 18, 2026. The description of the monthly chart is given on the front page. Visitors interested in the details can look at the front page, the Monthly Forecast section, and Read More… Here I describe only the shorter periods.
Jupiter is the first planet in the CVD scheme for this month. Its period runs for November 19 to November 20. It is in Leo and occupies the eighth house. It is tied between two malefic planets, Mars and Ketu. Therefore, the stock market may decline a little.
3. Transits during this week:
The Sun is now transiting Scorpio, a sign of its friend. On Monday (Nov 16), the Moon transits Aquarius. The Sun makes a square aspect with a combination of three planets, Mars, Jupiter and Ketu. As a result, the stock market may go lower.
On Tuesday (Nov 17), Mars, the weekday planet, advances in Leo, surpassing Jupiter and Ketu. As a result, Tuesday may be a slightly lower day for the markets.
On Wednesday (Nov 18), the weekday planet, Mercury transits Scorpio. It is now direct and makes a trine aspect with the Moon transiting Pisces. Wednesday may therefore be a slightly higher day.
On Thursday (Nov 19), the Moon transits in Pisces. The weekday planet, Jupiter, is hemmed between Mars and Ketu. The net result may be a slightly lower day in the markets.
On Friday (Nov 20), the Moon transits in Pisces. Venus is direct and strong in Libra. Saturn is still weak and retrograde but makes no close aspect. Friday, therefore, may be a strong day for the stock market.
By combining the transit and CVD techniques, I have estimated the stock market’s daily behavior as follows.
Monday: Lower; Tuesday: Slightly lower; Wednesday: Slightly higher; Thursday: Slightly Lower; Friday: Higher.
