Roller Coaster Ride

Issue No. 138 – Saturday 22 Oct 2022

The expected rebound of stocks in the past 2 weeks has happened and is now over.

As from next week (week commencing Mon 24 Oct 2022), stocks and commodities should be bearish, as revealed on the geocentric Jupiter-centered Ephemeris below:

A special pattern emerges – All the 3 Inner planets (Sun, Mercury & Venus) are closely packed. This is conveniently named a Sun-Bar. The Sun-Bar transits are powerful because of the combined forces of 3 planets.

The bearish transits are:

BEAR ONE
   23 Oct 2022

   Jupiter 150 Sun-Bar
   Jupiter Aft Trojans (Jup AT, recession asteroids) are 60⁰ behind Jupiter).
   The sharply bearish aspect is [Jup AT Square Sun-Bar].  Square = 90 degrees.

BEAR TWO
   06 Nov 2022
   Jupiter 135 Sun-Bar. 135 is a Sesquare.
   The aspect is [Jupiter Sesquare Sun-Bar] de-stabilizing bearish Jupiter.

It would appear (from these 2 significantly bearish features) that Stocks should slide from Mon 24 Oct 2022 for 3 weeks (to mid Nov 2022).

However, during this 3-week period, there are rising days, revealed by 2 geocentric Ephemerides below.

The Mars-centered Ephemeris shows:
    On 02 Nov 2022 Sun-Bar transits 135⁰ on the Left of Mars.

This aspect is much strengthened by an aspect on the Neptune-centered Ephemeris:
    31 Oct 2022 [Neptune Sesquare Sun-Bar].

These 2 powerful transits effectively invoke bullish Mars influence, and stocks should rise.

To sum up:

[1] Stocks plunge in the week commencing Mon 24 Oct 2022.

[2] There is a rebound from the week commencing Mon 31 Oct 2022.

[3] Stocks turn bearish again from late Friday on a Moon transit:
          Fri 04 Nov 2022 @22:05 [Jupiter Conjunction Moon].

Stocks will continue to slide

 Issue No. 137 – Saturday 07 Oct 2022

Stocks and Gold attempt to rebound (after UK Bond market fiasco at end Sep 2022). 

A chart for US 10-Year Treasury bond yield is produced below.

The current bond yield is just below 4%. With US inflation rate of 8.1/2%, the Fed rate must be raised substantially to about 8% to seriously fight inflation. Accordingly, I expect the bond and stock markets to fall sharply in the coming months upon much higher interest rates.

Even during a bear market, bonds and stocks do not fall every day. There are intermittent rebounds.

 I expect the following:
   [1] Stocks will rebound in the coming 10 days or 2 weeks.
   [2] Thereafter, the down trend will continue.

Reasons for the rebound in coming 2 weeks

A heavy line links up 2 bullish planets (Mars and Saturn are the 2 bullish planets) forming a Bullish Long Bar. The bullish Mars-Saturn Long Bar is close to Jupiter (super Giant). Jupiter’s Curved Space stimulates the Bullish Long Bar (for a protracted period) which imbues bullish sentiments to investors. Stocks and Gold should rise.

Accordingly, stocks and Gold are expected to rebound from now for about 10 days or 2 weeks.

Reasons for continuing slide.

After the rebound, stocks should slide because of rising interest rates. The bearish feature is depicted on the above Geocentric Jupiter-centered Ephemeris.

Jupiter Fore Trojans (Jup FT) are sharply bearish when de-stabilized. Jup FT are posited at 60⁰ behind Jupiter. On 23 Oct 2022 the Sun moves to 150⁰ behind Jupiter. The Sun is (150 – 60) = 90⁰ behind Jup AT. The bearish aspect is:
       [Jup AT Square Sun].

The aspect is exact on Sunday 23 Oct 2022.

On the same date (23 Oct), the Moon moves to 180⁰ of Jupiter. This is another bearish aspect: [Jupiter Opposition Moon].

    Jup AT are de-stabilized by Sun
    Jupiter is de-stabilized by Moon.

The combined effect is sharply bearish, and it ushers in another bearish phase.

The market should fall a couple of days before 23 Oct 2022. Likely, the downtrend starts from 20 Oct 2022.
