The S&P 500 lost 20 points last week. I was expecting it to go lower.
Here is the expected breakdown for the week of September 29 to October 03, 2025.
The dasha planet for September 29 – 30 is Mars, which occupies the sixth house in the sign Libra. Mars is a malefic planet, and becomes less malefic when it occupies the sixth house. As a result, the market may end slightly lower during these days.
Rahu is the compressed Vimshottri dasha planet for October 01 – 04. Rahu is a volatile planet and behaves according to the aspects on it. In the monthly chart, it is aspected by strong Jupiter from the third house. It also forms a wide conjunction with Saturn. As a result, the market may go slightly higher during these days.
Transits during this week:
The Sun is now transiting its sign of fall, Libra. On Monday, the Moon transits through Capricorn. The Moon makes a square aspect with Mercury. The stock market may retreat slightly on Monday.
On Tuesday, Mars continues to move in Scorpio, a sign of its liking. It also makes no close aspect. So, Tuesday may be a flat day for the markets.
Mercury has now moved into Libra. It has a square aspect with the exalted Jupiter planet. Wednesday, May, may therefore be a flat day.
Jupiter continues its transit in its exalted sign, Cancer, and has been continuously supporting the stock market. It makes a square aspect with Mercury in Libra. Thursday, therefore, may be a slightly higher day.
Venus is transiting in a sign of its fall, Virgo. It makes a conjunction aspect with Ketu, the south node. Friday, therefore, may be a slightly lower day.
By combining the transit and CVD techniques, I have estimated the daily behavior of the stock market to be as follows.
Monday: Slightly Lower; Tuesday: Flat; Wednesday: Slightly higher; Thursday: Flat; Friday: Slightly Lower.
