Probability

62%

The S&P 500 closed at 7,515.34 on July 13, 2026; Nasdaq Composite rose to 26,107 on July 14 (+0.9%). Polymarket assigns 62% probability to SPY above $760 (~7,600 SPX) in July – meaning the lower threshold of 7,550 by July 18 (three more trading days) is statistically well within reach. Goldman Sachs and Bank of America massively beat Q2 expectations. Headwinds: UnitedHealth miss (covered prediction, July 16) and Brent oil at $85.84 (+10% in a week) weighing via higher inflation expectations. Net, the earnings tailwind remains dominant.
