Predicted for 29. October 2026
·
Based on: Historical Cycle
AB InBev posted organic total volume growth of +0.9% in Q2 FY2026 (July 2026) — the second consecutive quarter of positive volume growth after years of decline, driven by Brazil (+4% volumes) and Mexico. The US business continues to suffer from the Bud Light boycott aftermath (~-3% in the US). Bloomberg consensus for Q3 sees ~+1.2% organic total volume. Probability of exceeding 1.0% is ~55%: the trend is positive, but Q2's marginal result (0.9%) and the US structural issue leave uncertainty. No active Polymarket market for ABI.

Rémy Cointreau published its H1 FY2026/27 result on October 27, 2026: organic growth of +2.9 percent YoY for April–September 2026 — 90 basis points above this forecast's threshold. The company confirmed its FY2026/27 guidance ('gradual return to organic growth'). Q2 FY2026/27 (Jul–Sep): Cognac up 12 percent YoY. FY2025/26 full year: +0.2 percent organic ('in line with targets', Rémy IR, June 3, 2026). Achieving above 2.0 percent for the full year only requires H2 (Oct 2026–Mar 2027) to avoid a complete collapse — the 90-basis-point H1 buffer provides substantial safety margin. Risks: US demand weakness, Chinese Cognac tariffs, macro slowdown. Supporting: Rémy Martin premiumization strategy, confirmed guidance, strong Q2 momentum.

After the record of 322 million bottles (2021), Champagne shipments are in structural decline: ~319 million in 2022, ~299 million in 2023 (CIVC). Continued luxury weakness in China (export volume –27% YoY H1 2026), rising input costs, and saturated key markets (USA, France, UK) point to further contraction. At –5 to –7% p.a. decline (2022–2025 trend), 2026 volume would be approximately 262–271 million bottles — well below the 280 million threshold. No prediction market signal available. Confirmed via CIVC annual report or Reuters by January 31, 2027.
