Predicted for 31. December 2026
·
Based on: Ongoing Event
OpenAI filed a confidential S-1 with the SEC on June 8, 2026. Polymarket prices the completion of an OpenAI IPO by December 31, 2026 at 71% (~$3 billion in trading volume on this question). The public S-1 filing is expected by August 31, 2026 in an existing Cassandra open prediction. Typical timeline: public S-1 → 30-day SEC review → 2–3 week roadshow → listing. Scenario: S-1 by August 31 → listing October–December 2026 is realistic. Risk: market uncertainty (Iran escalation, Brent volatility), regulatory delays, or OpenAI's own hesitation ('hasn't decided on timing'). Own estimate: 60% (slightly more conservative than Polymarket due to tight timing requirements).
Data basis for this prediction
- Polymarket: 71% für OpenAI IPO bis 31.12.2026 (ca. 3 Mrd. USD Marktvolumen) – Stand 20.07.2026
- LetsDatascience.com: 'Polymarket prices OpenAI IPO at 71¢' – Stand 20.07.2026
- SEC EDGAR: OpenAI vertraulicher S-1 eingereicht 8. Juni 2026 (bestätigt durch Medienberichte)
- Polymarket: OpenAI $1T+ IPO vor 2027 ebenfalls bei 71% gehandelt – Stand 20.07.2026

Apple follows its established chip refresh cycle: M4 MacBook Pro announced November 2024 — M5 refresh after 23–24 months in October/November 2026 fits the historical pattern exactly (M1→M2: ~17 months; M2→M3: ~16 months; M3→M4: ~14 months). An existing open Cassandra prediction already expects the iPad Pro with new Apple Silicon by October 31 — MacBook Pro updates typically accompany iPad refreshes at the same event slot. 9to5Mac and Bloomberg reported M5 MacBook Pro leaks for H2 2026. Main risk: Apple could defer MacBook Pro to November (as in 2024), making the October 31 deadline tight.

Samsung announced Intelligent Eyewear for 'Fall 2026' at Galaxy Unpacked London (July 2026). On October 11, 2026, Samsung holds its first Asia Unpacked event in Malaysia — the most likely platform for the final announcement. Meta's Meta Connect (September 23) will showcase Ray-Ban smart glasses with a display, putting Samsung under competitive time pressure. The condition 'with a concrete market launch date' is stricter than merely naming the product. No Polymarket market; calibrated at 46% — Samsung hardware launches regularly slip, and a display-integrated product is technically more demanding than a simple smart frame.

Google Cloud has been growing at ~28–30% YoY and profitable since Q4 2023. Q4 2024 revenue was $11.96B. On the same growth trajectory, Q3 2026 is estimated at ~$16.5–17.5B. Drivers: AI infrastructure demand (TPUs, Gemini Cloud), enterprise deal closures. No direct Polymarket market found; Wall Street consensus likely ~$16.5–17.5B. Risk: cloud budget compression from rate hikes. Benchmark: open platform prediction for AWS Q3 2026 is >$35B; Google Cloud historically ~45–48% of AWS.
