Probability

66%

The Nasdaq 100 closed at 29,727.10 on July 10, 2026 — only 273 points (+0.9%) from the 30,000 level. The S&P 500 at 7,575.39 is near an all-time high (dshort Advisor Perspectives, July 10). The AI-driven tech rally supports the Nasdaq: OpenAI released GPT-5.6 on July 9, 2026, boosting sector sentiment; Nvidia remains the world's largest company with 82% probability per Polymarket. No dedicated Polymarket signal for Nasdaq 30,000 available. Risks: disappointing Q2 earnings (tech season starts mid-July), macroeconomic surprises.
