Nvidia catalysts: Q2 FY2027 results on August 26 (consensus $2.01, separately predicted), Blackwell GPU demand, rising hyperscaler AI capex. Apple faces slowing iPhone revenue growth. Polymarket anchor: 61%.

The current Fed policy rate stands at 3.50–3.75% (effective 3.62% as of July 2026). Polymarket assigns 82% probability to an unchanged outcome at the July FOMC meeting (decision: July 29, 2 pm ET).
