Predicted for 31. July 2026
·
Based on: Speculative
Polymarket gives a 70% probability that Nvidia defends its top market cap position through end of July 2026 (as of July 22, 2026). Apple is priced at 29% for the #1 spot. Nvidia's market cap stands at approx. $4.97T; Apple briefly overtook it on July 17 at ~$4.88T but has since fallen behind. Nvidia benefits from sustained AI infrastructure demand (AMD competition priced in), while Apple faces iPhone pricing pressures and China risks. This is a separate prediction from the already-open December 31, 2026 forecast.
Data basis for this prediction

Verdict: Miss
Die Vorhersage traf nicht ein. Apple überholte Nvidia am 27. Juli 2026 dauerhaft und beendete den Tag als wertvollstes Unternehmen der Welt (~4,94–5,0 Bio. USD vs. Nvidia ~4,75–4,83 Bio. USD). Am 28. Juli 2026 überschritt Apple erstmals die 5-Billionen-USD-Marke. Damit war Apple – nicht Nvidia – zum Handelsschluss am 31. Juli 2026 die wertvollste börsennotierte Gesellschaft. Ausschlaggebend: Kursanstieg der Apple-Aktie (+22 % YTD 2026) durch Investorenpräferenz für Unternehmen mit zurückhaltendem KI-Capex, kombiniert mit relativer Schwäche bei Nvidia.

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.
