THE BOTTOM LINE: We are facing a week in which stocks are likely to get
off to a disappointing start, with some losses followed by choppy
trading and sluggish activity. There's likely to be a push toward a
rally as the week comes to an end, but it remains to be seen whether or
not that will do enough to pull the week as a whole into positive
territory. Mercury is still retrograde for much of the trading week, and
with a Full Moon and the Summer Solstice added to the mix, this is not
the time to be sticking your neck out too far!

COMMENT: When I noted in the last issue that we were facing a week in
which "unreliable market signals are the order of the day," I didn't
fully realize just how accurate I was being! It was a very unsatisfying
week, particularly if you were looking for any clear sense of market
direction.
After a modest bump in prices to start the week, large cap stocks
retreated for a couple of days, and then regained the ground they had
lost, finishing up the week right where they had started out. Yes, it
was another week of void-of-course Moons and Mercury
retrograde--certainly not the best environment for active traders!

MORE OIL FROM ARABIA
In a meeting with United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, King
Abdullah has committed to increasing his country's crude oil output. The
boost of half-a-million barrels a day will bring Saudi oil production to
9.7 million barrels a day, which is the highest production level ever
seen in Saudi history.

The pledge for a boost in production came along with assurances from Ban
Ki-moon that "There will be no shortage of oil." And, according to Saudi
Oil Minister Ali al-Naimi, the hike in the output from Saudi wells is
coming in response to desperate pleas from as many as 60 oil-consuming
countries.

But will the change in Arabian plans make a difference in prices at the
pump in the U.S.? We will have to wait and see. But even if prices drop
to say, $3.50 a gallon, is that really a bargain?

WATER, WATER EVERYWHERE
The massive flooding in the Midwest has certainly done a lot of damage,
and the worst is clearly not over yet. The latest reports suggest that
the rivers aren't expected to crest for another two or three days.

But the story of the flooding is not just about human suffering and the
loss of property. As the flood waters continue to rise, lots of topsoil
is being washed away into the Mississippi River basin, on its way to the
Gulf of Mexico. The ultimate impact on U.S. agriculture--and on future
food prices, not to mention the viability of ethanol as an alternative
fuel--is going to be enormous. Watch for ripple effects from this event
for a long time to come!

A PERSONAL APPEARANCE IN COPENHAGEN
I'll be speaking on June 20 and 21 at the Sixth ISBA Congress in
Copenhagen, Denmark, sharing my insights on "Eclipse Dynamics in
Business and the Markets" and on "Astrology and Evolving Business
Models." Please plan to attend if you can get there! You'll find details
about the event at www.businessastrologers.com .

By the way, because of my international travel plans this week, there
may be a slight delay in the arrival of next week's issue of the
FinancialCyclesWeekly newsletter. My plan is to publish it, however, so
keep an eye on your email inbox as the next trading week gets underway,
and we'll see if the airlines, customs, and Mercury back in direct
motion cooperate. Thanks in advance for your patience and understanding!

A HELPING HAND
There has been a significant increase in the number of roadside
assistance calls from U.S. motorists in recent weeks. It seems that with
gasoline prices in the U.S. topping the $4-a-gallon mark, American
drivers have become determined to purchase less of the stuff. For many,
that means not filling up the tank when they make a refueling stop. As a
result, more and more of them are running out gas while on the road,
keeping the phone lines lit at AAA and other highway assistance agencies.

SPAMALOT
The skyrocketing cost of food has brought about a resurgence in the
popularity of some dietary items that until recently had fallen out of
fashion. Perhaps most notable is the comeback being experienced by Spam.
According to Hormel, the corporation behind the product, sales of the
canned ersatz meat have risen 9 percent since the first of the year.

BACK ON THE AIR
A couple of days I had a great chat with Michael Yorba, the producer of
the Commodity Classics show on web TV. He told me that during the
current Mercury Retrograde period he has been restructuring his
operational plan for the program, bringing considerable enhancements to
the quality of the production and some expanded benefits for viewers, too!

Right now it looks like the show will be back live on yorba.tv very
soon, and right after Mercury goes direct I'll be joining Michael once
again as a regular guest on the program. Look for me live on Thursday
afternoon, June 26, at 3:30 p.m. Central (4:30 p.m. Eastern).

I know we will have a lot of exciting stuff to talk about then, and I'm
looking forward to having you personally join the conversation through
the program's online chatroom during the show. In the meantime, take a
moment to access the archived video of my last appearance on Commodity
Classics at the end of May. It has taken an unusually long time to get
this video clip archived properly (Mercury retrograde at work again!),
but it's now available at last in the publications section of my
website. You can link directly to the video by going to

THE ECONOMIC CALENDAR
During the week ahead we will be watching for the reports on Treasury
International Capital, the Empire State Manufacturing Survey, Housing
Market Index, Housing Starts, ICSC-UBS Store Sales, MBA Purchase
Applications, Industrial Production, Current Account, the State Street
Investor Confidence Index, the EIA Petroleum Status Report, the EIA
Natural Gas Report, Leading Indicators, the Philadelphia Fed Survey,
Jobless Claims, and the Money Supply.

On Monday Richmond Federal Reserve Bank President Jeffrey Lacker will be
in Spartanburg, South Carolina to talk about the U.S. economic outlook.
He may get some hot questions from the audience and the media then,
especially considering Fed Chairman Ben Shalom Bernanke's hints last
week that higher interest rates may be on the way.

ASTROLOGICAL DYNAMICS
Once again we have a trading week that's likely to be dominated by the
impact of the current retrograde motion of Mercury. Again and again,
I've found that Mercury retrograde throws a monkey wrench into the
process of astrological forecasting, making it extremely difficult to
predict market behavior with any degree of accuracy.

Having said that, it's likely that we will see a fairly negative week
ahead of us as far as equities trading is concerned, with the positive
potential of the geocentric Venus/Hades conjunction and heliocentric
Venus/Pluto opposition reversing rather quickly as Monday's trading gets
underway, thanks to the heliocentric ingress of Venus into Cancer and to
the intensity of the Mars/Chiron opposition.

Tuesday isn't likely to do too much along the lines of reviving bullish
interest, since both the Sun/Hades conjunction and the heliocentric
Mercury/Jupiter conjunction that day signal congested trading. Wednesday
brings the week's most positive astrological configurations as far as
the markets are concerned, with the geocentric Venus/Pluto Opposition,
the heliocentric Venus/Kronos conjunction, and the Full Moon all acting
as potential triggers for some aggressive buying action.

Thursday brings the Mercury direct station at last, a most welcome event
whether you're in or out of the market. After three weeks of
miscommunication, missed connections, and market confusion, it will be
nice to see things getting back to normal. But don't expect that to
happen this week! Experience has shown that the time of Mercury's return
to direct motion can be just as disruptive as any other point of the
Mercury retrograde cycle, if not more so. After all, it is a station,
which means that Mercury seems to be standing still in the sky. For the
fast-moving messenger of the gods, this is not a good thing! So even
though Mercury will be direct once again, there's still plenty of reason
for caution at this time, especially if you're actively involved in the
markets on Thursday or Friday.

As far as Thursday's trading goes, I'm anticipating some fairly choppy
action with a slightly negative bias. Whether or not we lose much ground
in the equities markets at that point in the week, however, it wouldn't
be surprising to see a push toward a big rally near the end of the
trading day on Friday, with the Summer Solstice picking up a lot of
extra energy from the Sun/Pluto opposition. There's a cautionary note
here, however--a void-of-course Moon begins an hour before Friday's
closing bell, so be prepared to take profits before then and/or close
out trades that you're not comfortable holding over the weekend.

Throughout this trading week I will be tracking heliocentric
sixth-harmonic planetary lines (H,60,N,-2) for the Earth, Mercury,
Venus, Jupiter, Pluto, Hades, Kronos, Apollon, and Admetos, using the
Fibonacci/Galactic Trader software from P.A.S. to follow the active
planetary support and resistance in real time. For more information on
this astro-trading analysis and trading software go to

Have a great week!

SPIRITUAL FOCUS FOR THE WEEK
Many of history's most successful traders have clearly understood that
emotional equilibrium is the key to effective trading. Through Practical
Spiritual Astrology we have an opportunity to restore inner harmony,
enhance emotional balance, and make wiser choices in the markets.

How do we fulfill our Divine mission? How do we more fully become who we
are destined to be? The answer is amazingly simple. We simply have to
awaken emotional energies in others. In so doing we open the doors to
mental fulfillment, to the quickening of the intuition, to connection
with higher planes and purposes, and to awakening the spiritual
dimensions in our own lives and in the lives of others. At times the
emotional expressions that get awakened may become a bit uncomfortable,
but our role is to stay securely anchored in our higher purpose so that
others have the opportunity to share our vision of the enlightened world
to come.

"Enthusiasm spells the difference between mediocrity and
accomplishment." --Norman Vincent Peale

GLOBAL EQUITIES MARKETS
Except for U.S. utilities and blue chips, led mainly by McDonald's and
Boeing, the markets continued to slide last week, with issues in Europe
and Latin America taking substantial losses. The big plunge, however,
was in Asia and the Pacific Rim, with Shanghai and Hong Kong both
posting losses of dizzying proportions.

Dow Jones Industrial Average -- up 0.80%
Dow Jones Transportation Average -- down 1.93%
Dow Jones Utilities Average -- up 2.48%
S+P 500 -- down 0.05%
NASDAQ Composite Index -- down 0.81%
Russell 2000 -- down 0.91%
London FTSE-100 -- down 1.76%
Amsterdam Index -- down 2.39%
Paris CAC-40 -- down 2.36%
Frankfurt DAX -- down 0.57%
Mexico Index -- down 2.19%
Sao Paulo BOVESPA -- down 3.70%
Sydney All Ordinaries -- down 3.72%
Bombay SENSEX -- down 2.46%
Tokyo Nikkei Index -- down 3.56%
Shanghai SE Composite Index -- down 13.84%
Hong Kong Hang Seng Index -- down 7.42%

U.S. EQUITY TRENDS
Our bearish technical assumptions for the U.S. indices continues to be
upheld, with selling taking a somewhat slower pace during the past
trading week, but continuing nevertheless.

The Russell 2000 broke through the support of its recent upward
trendline and closed the trading week significantly lower at 733.61
after recovering from even sharper losses earlier in the week. The
Russell is currently on a January 4 short-term sell signal, with a daily
close above 799 required to return to short-term bullishness. Our August
3, 2007 intermediate-term sell signal for the Russell 2000 remains in
place at this point, with a daily close above 824 currently required to
reactivate intermediate-term bullishness. The Russell is now also on a
November 26, 2007 long-term sell signal, with a daily close above 856
needed to move our long-term indicator for the Russell back to the buy side.

The NASDAQ Composite spent most of the trading week well below its
25-day moving average, and after dropping below the 2400 mark in
mid-week managed to recover a bit and close the week at 2454.50. The
NADAQ is on a November 8 short-term sell signal, with a daily close
above 2735 needed to reverse our technical trend assumptions back to the
buy side. The NASDAQ is on a January 22 long-term sell signal, with a
daily close of 3044 or higher needed to resume long-term bullish
expectations. We are now also on a January 8 intermediate-term sell
signal, with a daily close above 2861 currently required to flip this
indicator back to the buy side.

The 1360 price level is proving to be a highly-magnetized zone for the
S+P 500, with the index spending the beginning and end of the week at
that level before settling on a weekly close of 1360.03. This index is
on a December 17 short-term sell signal, with a daily close above 1436
needed to reverse our trend assumptions back to the long side. The S+P
500 is also on a November 26, 2007 intermediate-term sell signal, with a
daily close above 1499 needed to reverse it back to the buy side. For
the long-term, the S+P is on a January 17 sell signal, with a daily
close above 1552 now need to flip our long-term trend expectations back
to bullish assumptions.

S+P 500 -- Long-Term Bearish; Intermediate-Term Bearish; Short-Term Bearish
NASDAQ -- Long-Term Bearish; Intermediate-Term Bearish; Short-Term Bearish
RUSSELL 2000 -- Long-Term Bearish; Intermediate-Term Bearish; Short-Term
Bearish

METAL MARKETS
GOLD -- Contrary to my expectations, Gold failed to move aggressively
above the $900 mark last week, meeting some fairly solid resistance
there instead. The stage is thus set for some further downside action in
the yellow metal, with a potential for a negative bias holding until
late July or early August. Nevertheless, with Mercury still retrograde,
anything can happen in this market right now. The most significant
short-term spot to watch as far as Gold is concerned is the support zone
at 845.00; if there's a big downward move through that point we are
likely to see even bigger losses ahead.

SILVER -- Silver typically runs in tandem with Gold, but during the past
trading week Silver suffered a significantly bigger loss. So what's
going on? Since Mercury went retrograde there has been a neat inversion
in my price projection model for Silver, and if that inversion holds
through the coming trading week we may see the price of Silver drop even
more during the week ahead.

performance foams, custom electrical components, and other polymer
products. This stock recently hit some significant resistance at around
$40, in a zone that provided support for ROG last November. Transiting
Saturn hits the ROG First-Trade IC this week just as transiting Mercury
goes direct, and even though transiting Jupiter will be in opposition to
First-Trade Vulcanus as the week comes to an end, things don't look to
positive for this stock, at least from an astrological perspective.
Before the month is out, Saturn will connect with First-Trade Poseidon,
First-Trade Zeus, and First-Trade Cupido. Then, as we move into the
early days of July, transiting Hades will conjoin First-Trade Kronos,
transiting Mars will be quintile First-Trade Hades, and transiting
Jupiter will be quincunx First-Trade Hades. On balance, then, we think
there's good reason to sell ROG short right now. We plan to do so around
the middle of the trading week, with an initial buy stop set at 40.55.

Swift Energy Company (SFY)
NYSE; optionable
First Trade Date: 07/11/1991; 09:30 a.m.
An explorer and developer of oil and natural gas properties in Texas and
Louisiana, Swift Energy is based in Houston. Even though in its recent
trading SFY has made something that's starting to look suspiciously like
a Double Top, this stock has continued to find support on its 25-day
moving average, and we think the current pull-back in oil prices might
be providing a good buying opportunity, as least as far as SFY is
concerned. Transiting Saturn conjoins the SFY First-Trade Ascendant on
June 27, the same day that transiting Jupiter conjoins the First-Trade
True Lunar Node. After that, in fairly short order, we get transiting
Jupiter in opposition to the First-Trade Sun, transiting Mars conjoining
First-Trade Venus, and transiting Jupiter sextile First-Trade Pluto.
With that kind of outlook we're ready to enter a long position in SFY
toward the end of the current trading week. Our initial stop will be set
at 55.45.
