Article Abstract:
An increasing number of investment companies have begun seeking astrological guidance in making their strategies or next moves. Investors have started to consider astrology as a factor in driving stock market trends after realizing that stock market crashes of 1857, 1873, 1929 and 1987 happened a day or two before a new moon. Analysts who believe in astrology predict that the stock market may face a downturn on or before June 2, 2000 when a new moon is scheduled to rise.

A case in point is Monument Internet fund's reshuffling which is shifting its focus to companies involved in digital technologies instead of concentrating on just the Internet.
