The Market Week in Review

Consider the “Asset Inflation Express” now derailed.

The nail in the coffin was Friday’s job reports, showing payrolls increased a paltry 54,000, and unemployment increased to 9.1%. The USA economy is clearly in trouble and officially overdrawn on its debt ceiling limit. It manages only to get by for a few more weeks by borrowing from other accounts like the pension funds of federal employees.

To Financial Astrologers, the most illuminating aspect to this realization is that it breaks down on the last trading week of Jupiter in Aries. Along with Uranus in Aries, this has been the cosmic engine that has propelled this bull market since summer 2010. Now half of that wild and speculative combo—Jupiter—leaves the wild and speculative sign of Aries. Jupiter, Uranus, and Aries are each independent, insatiable, and at worst, greedy. And in its place now comes real fear.

And maybe from real fear comes logical and practical solutions—eventually.
