Your lookahead horoscope: January 25, 2026

  IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY Be good to yourself over the coming year. Every time you reach a new milestone, which will be often, reward yourself with a special treat. Life doesn’t have to be a constant struggle, it can also be a lot of fun. Make that your No. 1 aim. ARIES (March 21 - April 20): You are who you are for a good cosmic reason and anyone who tries to suggest that you change your ways must be shown the door.

The stock market has returned to form in recent weeks, capping multiple record highs. With inflation cooling, investors are anticipating the Federal Reserve will be able to end its interest rate hiking campaign sooner rather than later, creating a more friendly environment for corporations. Rob Swanke, senior equity strategist for Commonwealth Financial Network, explained that stock market valuations have been rising in recent months as investors factor in the prospect of lower borrowing costs and improved earnings expectations. He also argued that “there’s still room to move higher,” given that valuations are below their 2022 levels.
