Lots of astronomical events… if you believe events like a solar eclipse, Nova, moons etc impact human behavior…it may also impact price behavior.
On September 29, an asteroid dubbed 2024 PT5 has become a mini moon of sorts, temporarily entering Earth's orbit for almost two months

Oct estimated - Naked eye nova explosion potentially will be viewable on earth, 3000 light yrs away. Happened last in 1946. Or roughly every 80 yrs.
T CrB It’s a once-in-a-lifetime event that will create a lot of new astronomers out there, giving young people a cosmic event they can observe for themselves, ask their own questions, and collect their own data,” said Dr. Rebekah Hounsell, an assistant research scientist specializing in nova events at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. “It’ll fuel the next generation of scientists.”

“I've been following NYUGrad for a number of years over on Slope. I pre-committed to his subscription here and have been quite happy with his perspective. I certainly don't execute every trade idea, but I've made about 25% from the anonymized safety stock noted above - it's one of my core holdings now. His paid podcast is well worth the cost of entry.” - John Sep 26 (Paying Subscriber)

The video clip below is of Harold Daggett, the International President of the International Longshoremen's Association, and leading the charge on this upcoming strike of ports from East Coast to the Gulf.
Officials estimate that it could take anywhere from four to six days to clear backlog from just a one-day strike, and weeks or more if the strike stretches one week.
