Predicted for 9. September 2026
·
Based on: Speculative
MacRumors, TechRadar, and Tom's Guide consistently report that Apple will debut its first-ever foldable iPhone – internally referred to as 'iPhone Ultra' – at the September 2026 Steve Jobs Theater event. The device is expected to feature a foldable OLED display on a titanium frame with a new hinge protection technology. The existing Apple event predictions (no iPad, no Mac, no Vision Pro) leave a 'Surprise' in the form of a new form factor as the logical candidate. No Polymarket market found for this specific product; probability based on source density and historical announcement patterns (comparable: AirPods Max 2019, Vision Pro 2023): 75%.
Data basis for this prediction
- MacRumors: Apple Event September 9, 2026 – Foldable iPhone Ultra erwartet (Stand 7.9.2026)
- TechRadar: 'Surprise and Shine' – What to Expect (Stand 7.9.2026)
- Tom's Guide: 9 neue Produkte beim Apple Sept-2026-Event (Stand 7.9.2026)
Verdict: Hit
Die Vorhersage ist eingetreten. Apple hielt am 9. September 2026 tatsächlich das 'Surprise and Shine'-Event ab und kündigte offiziell sein erstes faltbares iPhone an – allerdings unter dem Namen 'iPhone Duo' (nicht 'iPhone Ultra', wie in Gerüchten gehandelt). Das Gerät wurde von CEO John Ternus präsentiert und von Bloomberg, CNN Business, 9to5Mac und zahlreichen anderen Quellen bestätigt. Die Kernaussage der Vorhersage (faltbares iPhone, offiziell angekündigt beim September-2026-Event) ist vollständig korrekt. Lediglich der intern gehandelte Name 'Ultra' erwies sich als falsch – das Produkt heißt 'iPhone Duo'.

Applied Materials has beaten the EPS consensus in all four of its last reported quarters, with an average earnings surprise of +3.5%. The company's own Q4 guidance is $3.82–$4.22 per share; consensus at $4.06 sits near the midpoint, reflecting classic conservative management framing. Revenue is estimated at $10.30B (+51% YoY) — TSMC and Samsung have not pulled back H2 2026 capex plans. No Polymarket market directly available; a 100% beat streak over 4 quarters with a positive guidance range implies 70–75% probability. Risk: supply chain delays or expanded US export controls on advanced chips could force a Q5 inventory build.

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.
