Hit ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 26. July 2026 · Predicted for 31. July 2026 · Based on: Ongoing Event

Probability

65%

The Nikkei last closed at approximately 64,611 on July 24, 2026. The BoJ meeting on July 31 (existing open forecast: hold at 1.00%) is the key event; a hold is priced in. Headwind: a modest JPY strengthening is expected (existing open forecast: USD/JPY < 162.50 on July 31), weighing on export-heavy Nikkei stocks. A drop of over 0.9% within the week would be needed to breach 64,000 — possible but not the base case.

Verdict: Hit

Der Nikkei 225 schloss am 31. Juli 2026 bei 64.362,02 Punkten – deutlich über der Schwelle von 64.000. Der Index legte sogar +4,03 % (2.494 Punkte) zu, nachdem die Bank of Japan den Leitzins wie erwartet bei 1,00 % beließ (8:1-Abstimmung, Bloomberg 31.07.2026). Damit trat das Basisszenario der Vorhersage ein: BoJ-Hold als eingepreist, kein ausreichender Rückgang, um unter 64.000 zu fallen.

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%.
