AB InBev (Euronext: ABI) released H1 2025 results on July 31, 2025, and H1 2024 on August 1, 2024. H1 2026 is expected around July 30/31. Large-cap companies typically pre-announce results dates 2–4 weeks ahead via IR pages and exchange filings. Q1 2026 was strong: +12.0% reported revenue, +5.8% organic. Confirmation of the exact date by July 18 is highly likely.
Trade and beverage press (Sporked, Beverage Daily) reports that Red Bull Winter Edition Fuji Apple returns permanently from August 31, 2026 in regular and sugar-free variants. For an August launch, official PR or trade briefings are typically scheduled 4–6 weeks prior — squarely within the July 18 window. Red Bull consistently runs structured PR campaigns for seasonal editions.
US policy rate as of July 9, 2026 is 3.50–3.75% (effective 3.62%, source: CNBC/FRED) — the Fed has cut rates by ~75 bps in three 25-bp steps since early 2026 (from 4.25–4.50% to 3.50–3.75%). Fed cuts of this magnitude typically occur only when inflation is already tracking well toward the 2% target. The rate environment implies core PCE inflation around 2.0–2.3%; headline CPI historically runs slightly above core PCE but well below 3%. The BLS typically releases June CPI data in the second week of July. No Polymarket signal for a specific CPI threshold available.
Pogačar leads the yellow jersey after Stage 6 (Col du Tourmalet / Gavarnie-Gèdre, July 11, 2026) by 2:42 over Vingegaard. He won the first mountain stage with a 2:38 gap, dominating the Tourmalet so decisively analysts called the race over ('Race over already?', cyclinguptodate.com). Before July 15, further mountain finishes follow where Pogačar regularly gained time in prior Tours (2021, 2024). Vingegaard has shown no response in this TdF. To exceed 3 minutes requires only 19 more seconds across remaining stages — a minimal additional hurdle. Bookmaker odds for Pogačar as overall winner: >90%.
The Nasdaq 100 closed at 29,727.10 on July 10, 2026 — only 273 points (+0.9%) from the 30,000 level. The S&P 500 at 7,575.39 is near an all-time high (dshort Advisor Perspectives, July 10). The AI-driven tech rally supports the Nasdaq: OpenAI released GPT-5.6 on July 9, 2026, boosting sector sentiment; Nvidia remains the world's largest company with 82% probability per Polymarket. No dedicated Polymarket signal for Nasdaq 30,000 available. Risks: disappointing Q2 earnings (tech season starts mid-July), macroeconomic surprises.
The S&P 500 currently trades at ~7,543 points (July 9-10). Polymarket gives a 62% probability that SPY hits $760 (≈ S&P 7,600) at any point in July. For the specific July 18 close – start of US earnings season (Microsoft, Meta, Alphabet in week 30) and one week before the ECB decision – the probability is estimated at a slightly more conservative 57%.

If Argentina beats Switzerland (July 12), the defending champions face the winner of Norway–England on July 15. Norway has been a tournament surprise team but lacks experience at this level. England qualified through Euro rounds without struggle but narrowly advanced in the WM group stage. Argentina with Martínez, Álvarez and De Paul is favored against either opponent (betting odds ~1.75).
The DAX stood at 25,124 points on July 10, 2026 – a ~700-point technical correction from the all-time high of 25,826 (July 3). The pullback appears oversold; strong support lies at the 25,000 mark. With the beginning of Q2 earnings season for European corporations in mid-July and positive consumer sentiment from the World Cup, a recovery to 25,400+ within one week appears realistic.
