Predicted for 31. August 2026
·
Based on: Speculative
xAI released Grok 3 in February 2025. Leading AI labs (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google) typically ship new generations 9–15 months apart, placing Grok 4 most plausibly in the November 2025–May 2026 window — or if delayed, summer/fall 2026. xAI has recently expanded the Colossus cluster to 200,000 H100 GPUs. Elon Musk has publicly committed to making Grok the world's most intelligent AI. EU AI Act (high-risk obligations from August 2, 2026) may influence timing. No Polymarket/Kalshi market for Grok 4 release found; estimate based on development cadence and public xAI statements. Counterargument: xAI announces releases with little notice — delays to September–October 2026 possible.
Data basis for this prediction
- xAI – Grok 3 Launch (Februar 2025): Basis für Entwicklungsrhythmus (12–18 Monate bis Grok 4)
- xAI Engineering Blog – Colossus-Cluster: 200.000 H100-GPUs, 2025–2026
- EU AI Act – Hochrisiko-KI-Pflichten (Art. 9–17) in Kraft ab 2. August 2026 (Amtsblatt EU)
Verdict: Hit
[Vorzeitig entschieden] xAI veröffentlichte Grok 4 öffentlich über die xAI API (Grok 4.1 Fast: November 2025; Grok 4.6: 12. August 2026, Model-ID: grok-4.6, verfügbar auf api.x.ai). Quellen: VentureBeat, xAI Docs.

PLTR closed at $175.40 on November 4, 2026 (after-hours: $170.88, -2.58%; intraday high: $176.54; 52-week high: $212.94). Palantir clearly beat Q3-FY2026 EPS consensus: total revenue $2.313B, US Commercial revenue +148% YoY to $984M. The $185 threshold is +5.5% above the closing price or +8.3% above after-hours levels. Typical post-earnings 'sell the news' may weigh short-term, but the 52-week high of $212.94 confirms the level is reachable. NVIDIA earnings on November 18, 2026 could serve as a sector-wide catalyst. No direct Polymarket equivalent; own estimate: ~42%.

CBRS trades at $109.18 (October 30, 2026) — already 61% below its all-time high of $279.72. The final and largest lockup expiration is scheduled for November 10, 2026: approximately 19.4 million shares are unlocked (of three tranches of 19.4M each). Prior lockup tranches have consistently weighed on the stock. Insiders have sold ~$394.6M in shares since the May 2026 IPO — zero insider purchases. A Culper Research short-seller report has triggered multiple investigations. A close below $100 requires a ~8.4% decline — plausible given the expected supply pressure on expiration day.

ARM Holdings reports Q2 FY2027 (July–September 2026) on November 4 after market close. EPS consensus: $0.47; revenue consensus ~$1.38B (Theta Research, Oct 29). ARM is the dominant CPU IP licensor for AI servers (Neoverse), smartphones (Apple A-series, Qualcomm), and edge devices — all three segments scaling strongly in 2026. ARM has beaten EPS consensus in each of the last four quarters, driven by AI infrastructure capex. No direct Polymarket contract; analogue: S&P 500 Q3 2026 beat rate ~71%. Key risks: export control escalation (UK/US vs. China), hyperscaler capex delays, or HBM4 demand plateau.
