Jupiter Transit 2013… Influence on the Stock Market

Astrological transits are one of the main means used in astrology to forecast, and importance is given to transit outer planets (Saturn, Jupiter, Uranus, Pluto, Neptune) compared to that of inner planets(Sun, Moon, Mercury, Mars, Venus). Nonetheless the influence of transit is one of the biggest points in consideration while analyzing various sectors of the economy and then go stock specific.

Jupiter is the indicator of wealth and hence called the Dhanakaraka. Jupiter is the bank filled with money. Jupiter is considered the most auspicious planet and on 31^st May 2013 he moves from Vrishabha Rasi (Taurus) into the next sign Mithuna Rasi(Gemini). Point also needs to be kept in mind that Jupiter is not friendly to the sign Gemini; however it is a lot better when compared to Taurus.

From Gemini Sign count houses 2, 5, 7, 9 and 11 as positive and beneficial i.e… the transit is beneficial for Taurus (Venus), Aquarius (Saturn), Sagittarius (Jupiter), Libra (Venus) and Leo (Sun). Now let’s drill down further and look at the horoscope when India became independent. The Planetary positions as of 15^th Aug 1947, 00:00 hrs, New Delhi is considered for analysis…

India is now running Sun Mahadasha and Saturn Antardasha that will end on 30^th June 2013 and the Mercury Antardasha will start Jupiter transits in the end of Saturn Antardasha and will remain for an entire year in Gemini Zodiac during the Antardasha of Mercury.

Clearly there will be a lot of action in the communication space sectors to look at will be Telecom and Telecom Service providers.  Top Five stocks to watch are TULIP TELECOM … IDEA … BHARTI AIRTEL … RCOM … TECH MAHINDRA

Sectors influenced by Venus will also see gains Textiles will be a good bet. Five Stocks that will see action are RAYMOND … CENTURY TEXTLES … LMW … ALOK … S KUMARS

Metals that have lost its shine will get you at least 40% returns …SAIL, TATA STEEL, HINDALCO will be the top three followed with Oil and GAS to bet on will be CAIRN, RELIANCE and IGL

None the less the NBFC sector will see a lot more gains compared to the traditional Banking sector, stocks like RELIANCE CAPITAL … BAJAJ FIN … will enjoy traders attention

Gold will see a new Price followed with stock specific action in THANGAMAYIL, PCJ, T BZ will be good ones to bet.

While this will be the influence of Jupiter’s transit, we should not forget that the overall picture is still in the clutches of the bears, Saturn … Uranus and Pluto are still keeping their gravity high and pulling the markets down, we will see episodes of pull backs due to the influence of Jupiter and its Placement in the Indian Horoscope as of Independence day, Political uncertainty, Global equations, Debt burden and poor decision making will often disturb the minds of investors both domestic and global.

Saturn sitting in Libra is still the task master who will sooner or later show a correction in the market and the influence of Uranus is equally nonnegotiable, Pluto is famous for his hypocrisy, when we take a sigh of relief suddenly the unrest with the aspects made by the outer planets on the fast moving Moon and Mercury will indulge in a blood bath on the D-Street. Don’t forget that Jupiter is placed in the house ruled buy Mercury and it’s in the enemy house, though the fundamentals of Astrology believe Mercury to be neutral in relationship with Jupiter and also does influence the Economy / Business cycles and gives favorable results my study of Mercury with data since 1920 and all the Market crashes there on makes me believe in its unpredictable nature and suggest caution for investors till 2014 August.
