Predicted for 15. July 2026
·
Based on: Historical Cycle
US PPI (Final Demand) is currently highly elevated: April 2026 +6.0% YoY, May 2026 +6.5% YoY (BLS). The sharp rise reflects massive US import tariff pressure (145%+ on Chinese goods). For June 2026 the market expects slight moderation; whether the figure stays above 6.0% or drops to 5.5-6.0% is open. Moderation below 6% is plausible (base effects, oil prices), but with sustained high import price pressure and services inflation, remaining above 6.0% is also realistic.
Data basis for this prediction
- US PPI Final Demand April 2026: +6,0 % YoY (BLS)
- US PPI Final Demand Mai 2026: +6,5 % YoY (BLS)
- BLS PPI-Veröffentlichungsdatum: 15. Juli 2026, 8:30 ET

The current US policy rate stands at 3.50–3.75% (effective 3.62%, as of July 9, 2026) — after multiple cuts since 2025. Reaching 3.00–3.25% would require two additional 25bp steps, possible at the remaining FOMC meetings in September, October/November, and December 2026. Counter-argument: the open platform prediction for July 29 shows the Fed holding at 3.50–3.75%; the core CPI outlook is above 3.0% (open platform prediction) and PPI above 6.0% — both argue for a restrictive Fed stance. Only a significantly weaker labor market or a recession would justify two cuts by year-end.

EUR/JPY hit a weekly high of 185.71 on July 9, 2026 and has traded stably in the 184–186 range since early July. Consistency check with open platform predictions: USD/JPY > 159.00 and EUR/USD > 1.1300 on July 18 mathematically imply a EUR/JPY floor of ~179.70 — the 181.00 threshold sits well above that and is thus a consistent anchor. Downside risk exists if the BoJ unexpectedly turns hawkish or a global risk-off move sharply strengthens the yen. Long Forecast sees the July 2026 average at 185 JPY (range 180–188).

SOL trades at ~$76.68 on July 12, 2026, having been range-bound between $63 and $80 since early June. On-chain activity is approaching yearly highs per market data — a bullish signal. Reaching $78.00 requires just under 1.7% upside, within normal daily volatility, but key technical resistance sits at $80. Polymarket assigns 97% probability to BTC exceeding $65,000 in 2026; positive overall market correlation supports SOL. Risk: if the range holds or a pullback occurs, SOL misses the threshold.
