The theme of the week will be how much gambling/risky trades is enough and whether someone should control/reduce the risks. There may be ongoing clash between younger/naive entities who will feel like taking risks and older/conservative entities who will express serious concerns/caution and call for debt reduction. Some conservative voices may call for [governmental/official] controls to prevent [irresponsible] entities from going into too much debt. Also, gold (and silver) price will continue to be in focus.

AUG 3, 2015 (MON): Medium-strong mixed influence; market may possibly go down (55%). The down influence is to a large degree due to tense aspects to the US chart.

Aug 3-6: Some important financial agreements may be revised, reversed, or their conditions may need to be adjusted. This may possibly be because of the younger/female leaders clashing with old/conservative ones. Also, there may be clashes between young and/or female journalists or actors and old/conservative entities or individuals who want to keep some info hidden (esp. about debt, taxes, or abuse of power).

Aug 3-5: Restrictions on or problems with gold and/or someone’s leadership/prominence. Increased focus on and re-evaluation of the gold value. On the one hand, there may be discussions about it being undervalued, but there will be external pressure (from some government entities and/or large businesses involved in lending or taxation) that will likely keep its value down. Also, some political leader or actor may receive prominent attention in the news — he/she may be viewed as someone whose value may need to be re-evaluated because he/she has been underestimated or is not allowed to shine fully (e.g., because of sickness or rejection of their beliefs).

USA: Aug 3-4 (esp. the 4th): Increased possibility of important (and likely bad) news about banks/financial institutions (e.g., some actions related to savings cause concerns about whether there is sufficient liquidity, debts are higher than expected, loans need to be paid sooner than expected, there is a fight over who must pay how much to whom, some hidden info is revealed and causes anger, etc.).

AUG 4, 2015 (TUE): Strong mixed influence; market may possibly go down (55%). The down influence is to a large degree due to tense aspects to the US chart and it is more likely that the US market will go down. Globally, up move may be more likely. Either way, the day will likely see strong market moves and important decisions reached about savings/taxes/loans.

AUG 5, 2015 (WED):  Very strong mixed influence; market may possibly go down (55%). A busy news day with many important financial news coming out. The focus will likely be on gold, specific leaders and their performance, and re-evaluation of the value of gold or of some big players. There will be both heightened expectations that the re-evaluation will reveal a higher value than before, but there will also be strong pressure to keep the value low/suppressed. The suppression of the value will likely “win” overall, but today there is a chance of the market going up on hopes of the re-evaluation yielding higher prices/value (so there may be more investors willing to enter into risky trades). Today again we may see large market moves.

USA: Aug 5-6 — increased focus on silver and coins in general (e.g., increased sales/trading). Also, increased news about communication/transportation businesses (esp. car producers) and retail sales. There may be a decrease in the value of the associated entities or some other mildly unfavorable news (e.g., some car sales aren’t going well, parties are trying to enter into an agreement but can’t agree on the price, company is sold for lower value than was hoped, etc.).

AUG 6, 2015 (TH): Strong mixed influence; market may possibly go down (55-60%).

AUG 7, 2015 (FR): Strong mixed influence; market may possibly go up (55%). Very busy news day, with focus on transportation and communication industries, gold, and/or some prominent leaders (political or in the entertainment industry). As is the case the entire week, there will be a competition between investors who are hopeful and willing to enter into increasingly risky trades and calls for realism and control of the risky trades to ensure security (e.g., prevent entities or individuals from getting into too much debt).

USA: Increased focus on silver prices. This could be a minor reversal point (possibly a LOW/MIN). Another reversal in silver prices may occur around Oct 2 (Fr) to 4-5 (Mon-Tue) (Oct 4-5th, esp. the 5th, look like major reversal days for the market in general; probably from down on Oct 4-5 to up on Oct 5-6).

Glance ahead: The Thanksgiving week in the US (Nov 23-27, 2015) looks like it may bring some serious concerns and will likely coincide with a down market the entire week.

2020-2023 look super important for the US — major governmental reorganization and changes in the financial sector may occur. Key areas: government/governance, real-estate/borders, floods, epidemics/fighting some disease, and financial institutions. There is A LOT going on and requires a lengthy post to sort out all the influences (I’ve written a short post on this a while ago, but should dive into this interesting time more deeply). But to give you an idea, similar influences in the past manifested as AIDS epidemic, Civil war, years right before the WWII and early years of the WWII, and the Great Flood of 1862 (the largest flood in the recorded history of Oregon, Nevada, and California). It may be all for the best in the end, but will probably be experienced as a turbulent time while it’s happening.
