Financial Astrologer Predicts Bumpy Future For Dow

FARMINGTON HILLS (WWJ) - Move over Miss Cleo! If you're worried about the stock market -- fear not! A Financial Astrologer peeks into his crystal ball to give us his reading.

Forget reading the tea leaves. If you're worried about the economy and the nose-dive stocks are taking, turn to world-renowned Farmington Hills' Financial Astrologer Ray Merriman. WWJ's Kathryn Larson has the psychic hook-up.

On any given day you'll see stock trader Ray Merriman combing through financial papers, but he's always searching the signs of a market meltdown.

The zodiac says the big bad bear market is here to stay, but Merriman does predict the dow jones will rally a few times before tumbling down to 9000, where he fears it will remain until 2013.

The 30 year astrologer said stocks will rise in the coming weeks, and those nearing retirement should sell, but be cautions if you can afford to stick around.

Merriman said eventually the stars will align, and while it may not be an age of Aquarius, we'll recover.
