Predicted for 9. September 2026
·
Based on: Historical Cycle
At WWDC 2026 (June 8, 2026), Apple showcased iOS 20 features explicitly designed for foldable displays — a strong signal for upcoming hardware. Forbes (June 15, 2026) and MacRumors report that the September keynote event is tentatively set for September 9, 2026. The foldable iPhone is referred to in supply-chain leaks as 'iPhone Ultra' or 'iPhone Fold'; iPhone 18 Pro, Pro Max, and Apple Watch Series 12 are also expected. Main risk: foldable OLED panel production issues could force a separate, later announcement (hence 72% rather than ~80%).

Polymarket gives an 82% probability that Nvidia holds the largest market capitalization of any listed company at end of July 2026 (Apple as closest challenger at 11%). Nvidia stock at ~$202.80 (July 9). Late July earnings from Microsoft, Meta, Amazon, and Alphabet – strong AI capex guidance – directly support Nvidia chip demand.

Nvidia trades at ~€176 on July 11, 2026, approximately 13% below its 52-week high of €202.50 (May 14, 2026). Corporate insiders are buying at record levels since data collection began. AI infrastructure demand remains structurally intact (Datacenter revenues Q1 2026 +78% YoY). For H2 2026, Blackwell Ultra and Rubin chip architectures are expected, likely triggering new demand waves. A return above the 52-week high by year end is well within reach.
