Jan 19, 2025: Volatile and Bullish Market as Donald Trump is Re-Inaugurated amid Mars Rx in Midhuna Rasi

Last Week Stock Market Analysis Jan 13, 2024 – Jan 17, 2025

The past week was marked by significant volatility, driven largely by market reactions to economic data and Federal Reserve policies.

Overall Performance: The market ended the week on a downtrend, with significant declines across major indices.
Primary Drivers: Unexpectedly strong job growth and concerns about the Federal Reserve's future rate decisions were the main factors causing market fluctuations.
Sector Impact: Technology and financial sectors were among the most affected, with energy being the only sector to record gains.

Moon and Ketu will make a conjunction in Hastha Nakshatra in Kanni Rasi, with Jupiter Rx aspecting.
On Monday, Jan 20, 2025, Donald Trump will come back to power as the Sun enters Abhijit Nakshatra.
Mars retrograde will enter Midhuna Rasi on Tuesday, Jan 21, 2025, indicating bearish energy.
The conjunction of Saturn and Venus will push the market up on Wednesday, with the Moon transiting in Swathi Nakshatra.
The Moon in Vishaka Nakshatra will push the market down on Thursday, Jan 23, 2025.
Mercury will enter Makara Rasi and get an aspect from Jupiter. If the market goes down today, it is okay to go long, targeting a new all-time high (ATH) for the S&P 500.
Overall, the market is expected to remain neutral as new gains will be offset by late-week sell-offs.
A market rally is anticipated between Jan 31, 2025, and Feb 08, 2025, potentially setting a new ATH. However, this could trigger a market crash as Jupiter goes direct on Feb 04, 2025.
