Predicted for 31. July 2026
·
Based on: Historical Cycle
US Core PCE (excluding energy and food) was 3.4% YoY in May 2026 — in line with the Dow Jones consensus. A drop below 3.0% within a single month would only be plausible with significant base effects or a sharp drop in core goods prices — both unlikely given ongoing import tariff effects (Trump tariffs). The FOMC projects 2026 PCE inflation of 3.0–3.5% (Fed, June 17, 2026). Kalshi/Lines.com assigns 33% probability to exactly 3.4% — the majority of remaining market probability also falls at ≥3.0%. Separate, non-overlapping forecast: US ECI Q2 (also July 31 BLS) is already covered as an open prediction.

The CAC 40 traded at 8,340–8,379 on July 15–16, 2026. The 8,200-point threshold implies a ~1.7% decline buffer — absorbing: (1) ECB meeting July 23 (open prediction: rate stays at 2.25%) can trigger short-term positioning shifts; (2) Brent Crude at ~$85.44/barrel raises corporate input costs; (3) Iran/Hormuz geopolitics weigh on sentiment. The CAC 40 52-week low is 7,505 — current level is stably in the upper part of the annual range. No specific Polymarket market found for CAC 40 in July 2026.

The Nikkei 225 closed at 68,751.51 on July 15, 2026 (+1,008 pts / +1.49%), after +0.74% on July 14 — strong upward momentum in the second week of July 2026. Reaching 69,000 on July 17 requires only an additional +0.36% from July 15 close. Headwinds: Sangiin election on July 20 adds short-term political uncertainty; slightly firmer yen weighs on exporters. No specific prediction market found for this level/date.

UK CPI was at 2.8% YoY in May 2026 — unchanged from April 2026. A drop below 2.5% within a single month would be historically unusual and require strong deflationary one-off factors. Services inflation and wage pressure remain structurally elevated; energy prices have stabilized but no sharp decline is documented. No specific Polymarket or Metaculus market found; probability derived from historical UK inflation persistence.
