well even though i'm very skeptical , i have to say that the Saturn cycle for the Nasdaq worked apparently perfectly well so far, so i for one wouldn't dismiss it out of hand. after all, the Bradley siderograph has e.g. also pinpointed important turns to the day on several occasions last year. since i'm no expert on this, i can certainly not say why it worked, but i have to admit that it DID work.
in the same vein one can e.g. not deny that Steve Puetz has found a statistically relevant coincidence between solar/lunar eclipses and market panics. various works on time cycles and e.g. the lunar calendar (Carolan) have also produced remarkable results.
an interesting example as to why there may be more to market panics than meets the eye, is the panic of 1857. when the selling began on Wall Street, it was due to perceived problems at NY banks...during the days of the panic and the subsequent recovery, the undersea telegraph cable connecting the US and Europe was damaged, so no information could be exchanged in 'real time'. and yet, the continental markets crashed and recovered on exactly the same days as WS did.
inexplicable to this day.
