Dear friends,

The US stock market has been quite volatile in recent days, falling during the session but recovering towards the close. Today, the stock market has fallen over 200 points and the recovery appears to be less toward the close.

In a blog I signalled two aspect which could affect sentiments. The first one - the opposition of transit 6th lord Jupiter at 28° Sagittarius and 6th house and 10th lord Mars at 28° Gemini and 12th house upto the morning of April 24 did not do much, likely due to the exaltation of 2nd lord Sun and 4th lord Venus in transit at that time.

The second aspect of note, and the more important, is the aspect of transit 8th lord Saturn at 7° 42' Leo and 2nd house to natal 1st lord Moon at 7° 25' Taurus and 11th house, which is peaking at around this time. While conditions have improved with Mars having moved into the sign of Cancer and 1st house of the SAMVA USA chart, this aspect was expected to produce some tension for investors, even if it doesn´t become exact.

Once the aspect of Saturn begins to separate (this week!), the conditions should begin to improve quite noiticeably.

Best wishes,

Thor

U.S. Stocks Decline, Led by Financials on New Securities Rules

By Elizabeth Stanton

May 7 (Bloomberg) -- U.S. stocks declined the most a month, led by financial shares, after new securities rules spurred speculation investment banks will be forced to reveal additional losses.

Merrill Lynch & Co. and Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. sent banks and brokerages to their biggest drop since March after the Securities and Exchange Commission said it will require Wall Street firms to disclose capital and liquidity levels. Fourteen of 15 homebuilders in Standard & Poor's indexes retreated after the National Association of Realtors said fewer Americans bought previously owned homes in March. United Parcel Service Inc.

led a drop in all 10 transportation companies in the S & P 500 as oil topped $123 a barrel.

The S & P 500 lost 26.01 points, or 1.8 percent, to 1,392.25 at 3:32 p.m. in New York. The Dow Jones Industrial Average slid 211.61, or 1.6 percent, to 12,809.22. The Nasdaq Composite Index decreased 45.21, or 1.8 percent, to 2,438.1. Four stocks fell for each that rose on the New York Stock Exchange.

``The market is obviously worried about what will be disclosed,'' said Janna Sampson, co-chief investment officer at Lisle, Illinois-based Oakbrook Investments LLC, which oversees about $1.4 billion. ``From an investor's perspective, you want to know the firm you are invested has a strong capital standing. Why these firms wouldn't disclose this data is a mystery.''

All 10 industry groups in the S & P 500 retreated. Financial companies slumped the most as concern that the Federal Reserve may raise interest rates also weighed on the group. Fed Bank of Kansas City President Thomas Hoenig said in a Denver speech yesterday that ``serious''

inflation pressures may compel the central bank to increase borrowing costs.

Homebuilders in S & P indexes retreated 2.3 percent as a group. D.R. Horton lost 5 percent to $16.01. Lennar Corp. fell 2.8 percent to $19.41.

Dear Ben,

Quite right. That said, this aspect of transit Ketu to natal 8th lord Saturn occurs while the nodes are moving forward at normal speed. It is currently around 3° from exact. This aspect becomes exact on June 5, 2008. Later, when Ketu become stationary at around 24° 30' Cancer and 1st house from mid July to late September, it will have advanced over 2° from the exact aspect with Saturn. Still, this aspect is relevant, as you note, and has been mentioned in earlier discussion on SAMVA.

Best wishes,

Thor

Dear Thor

I am wondering why you did not mention the transit of Ketu on natal Saturn (lord of 8th house of obstructions and misfortunes) and its bad affect on the stock market.
