Probability

38%

The FTSE 100 closed at 10,574 on July 17. The index is heavily weighted in oil/energy stocks (Shell, BP) benefiting directly from the Iran-driven Brent rally (~$86/bbl, +14% the previous week). The required +1.2% to 10,700 falls within normal daily volatility. Headwind: UK CPI data (July 22, open prediction ≥3.0%) could raise BoE concerns. No Polymarket market for FTSE 100; estimate based on energy-sector momentum and global earnings sentiment.

Verdict: Hit

Der FTSE 100 schloss am 22. Juli 2026 bei 10.716,97 Punkten (+1,24 %, +131,06 Punkte) und lag damit klar über der Schwelle von 10.700. Die Vorhersage traf ein. Als Haupttreiber werden zwei Faktoren genannt: (1) Öl/Energie-Rally – Brent kletterte über 95 USD/bbl (Iran-Prämie), was Shell und BP stark beflügelte; (2) UK-CPI-Überraschung – die Inflation kühlte sich stärker als erwartet ab, was BoE-Zinserhöhungssorgen milderte und damit den befürchteten Gegenwind in einen Rückenwind verwandelte.
