Probability

48%

Brent trades at ~$92.69 on August 21, having risen from ~$88.85 after the US-Iran ceasefire expired Aug 17. Bessent announced imminent, historically unprecedented sanctions against Iran's energy sector; Trump continues threatening strikes on Iranian oil infrastructure. A further rise to $95 by early September is plausible if new sanctions or escalation triggers supply-disruption fears. No direct Polymarket anchor for this level.

Verdict: Miss

[Vorzeitig entschieden] Identische Begründung wie id 2437: Samstag, kein ICE-Brent-Handel, kein Schlusskurs am 5. September 2026. Zuletzt notierte Brent am Freitag, 4. September bei ~95,83 USD/bbl – aber der geforderte ICE-Schlusskurs am 5. September existiert schlichtweg nicht. Quelle: Trading Economics/ICE Trading Schedule.

S&P 500 (^GSPC) closes above 7,450 points on 30 September 2026 (confirmed by NYSE closing price or Bloomberg by 30 September 2026)

The S&P 500 closed at 7,636.36 on 9 September 2026. Falling below 7,450 by month-end would require a 2.4% decline. Headwinds: Fed rate hike of 25bp on 16 September (CentralBank.Watch: 59% probability), August PPI above expectations (+5.4% YoY), Iran-Gulf risk premium. Stabilizing factors: hike largely priced in (Polymarket: 93% for zero 2026 cuts), Q2 earnings solid, no recession signals. Historically, a single 25bp September hike rarely causes a monthly decline above 2.5%.
