Predicted for 1. August 2026
·
Based on: Historical Cycle
China's official PMI rose to 50.3 in June 2026 (third consecutive expansion month, beating expectations of 50.1), driven by AI-related high-tech export demand. Headwind: US Section 301 tariffs of 12.5% on Chinese goods. PMI values rarely drop more than 3 points month-on-month; a drop below 50 from the current 50.3 level is less likely than a continuation in expansion territory. No Polymarket contract for July available.

Verdict: Miss
Chinas NBS Manufacturing PMI für Juli 2026 wurde am 31. Juli 2026 veröffentlicht und lag bei 49,2 % — ein Rückgang um 1,1 Prozentpunkte gegenüber Juni (50,3 %) und damit deutlich unterhalb der Expansionsschwelle von 50,0. Quellen: NBS (stats.gov.cn), FXStreet, Mitrade, SMM. Ursachen des Verfehlers: (1) Hoher Basiseffekt aus der vorangegangenen Wachstumsphase, (2) saisonale Produktionsflaute in Teilen der Fertigungsindustrie, (3) schwache Exportaufträge infolge der US-Section-301-Zölle. Die Vorhersage unterschätzte das Rückschlagrisiko: Obwohl ein Einbruch um mehr als 3 Punkte unwahrscheinlich war, reichte ein Minus von 1,1 Punkten aus, um den Index in die Kontraktionszone zu drücken.

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%.
