Predicted for 31. August 2026
·
Based on: Speculative
Meta released the first Llama 4 variants (Scout, 14–17B; Maverick, >400B MoE) on Hugging Face in April 2026. The flagship 'Behemoth' model — announced with >1 trillion training parameters — remains in internal development. Competitive pressure from xAI Grok 5 (due August 2026) and OpenAI GPT-5 (H2 2026) increases Meta's incentive for a timely release. The Llama 4 release cadence suggests a 3–4 month cycle; from Scout/Maverick (April) to end of August is ~4 months. Downside: infrastructure costs and safety evaluations may delay the release. Base rate: ~35–40%.
Data basis for this prediction
- Meta Llama 4 Scout & Maverick: Veröffentlichung April 2026 auf Hugging Face (Meta AI Blog, April 2026)
- Meta AI Roadmap: 'Behemoth' (>1T Parameter) in Entwicklung, Release-Datum offen (Meta Earnings Call Q1 2026 / The Verge)
- Wettbewerb: xAI Grok 5 bis 31.08.2026 angekündigt; OpenAI GPT-5 für H2 2026 geplant (Tech-Pressemitteilungen, 2026)
Verdict: Miss
[Vorzeitig entschieden] Meta hat Llama 4 Behemoth aufgrund von MoE-Routing-Problemen bei 2T-Skalierung zurückgezogen; keine Open-Weight-Veröffentlichung erfolgt. Als Ersatz dient intern Muse Spark (closed-source). Quellen: Manifold Markets, Serenities AI, Aimadetools.

PLTR closed at $175.40 on November 4, 2026 (after-hours: $170.88, -2.58%; intraday high: $176.54; 52-week high: $212.94). Palantir clearly beat Q3-FY2026 EPS consensus: total revenue $2.313B, US Commercial revenue +148% YoY to $984M. The $185 threshold is +5.5% above the closing price or +8.3% above after-hours levels. Typical post-earnings 'sell the news' may weigh short-term, but the 52-week high of $212.94 confirms the level is reachable. NVIDIA earnings on November 18, 2026 could serve as a sector-wide catalyst. No direct Polymarket equivalent; own estimate: ~42%.

CBRS trades at $109.18 (October 30, 2026) — already 61% below its all-time high of $279.72. The final and largest lockup expiration is scheduled for November 10, 2026: approximately 19.4 million shares are unlocked (of three tranches of 19.4M each). Prior lockup tranches have consistently weighed on the stock. Insiders have sold ~$394.6M in shares since the May 2026 IPO — zero insider purchases. A Culper Research short-seller report has triggered multiple investigations. A close below $100 requires a ~8.4% decline — plausible given the expected supply pressure on expiration day.

ARM Holdings reports Q2 FY2027 (July–September 2026) on November 4 after market close. EPS consensus: $0.47; revenue consensus ~$1.38B (Theta Research, Oct 29). ARM is the dominant CPU IP licensor for AI servers (Neoverse), smartphones (Apple A-series, Qualcomm), and edge devices — all three segments scaling strongly in 2026. ARM has beaten EPS consensus in each of the last four quarters, driven by AI infrastructure capex. No direct Polymarket contract; analogue: S&P 500 Q3 2026 beat rate ~71%. Key risks: export control escalation (UK/US vs. China), hyperscaler capex delays, or HBM4 demand plateau.
