Predicted for 30. July 2026
·
Based on: Historical Cycle
The BoE last held Bank Rate at 3.75% in the June 2026 MPC meeting with a 7-2 vote; two members dissented in favor of a rise to 4.00%. UK CPI stands at 2.8%, above the 2% target. A Reuters poll of 65 economists shows a majority expecting no change; ~40% anticipate at least one hike, some of which may materialize at the July meeting. Bank of America flagged July and September as potential hike meeting dates. A rate rise would require at least two members switching from hold. Own estimate for hold: ~64%.

Verdict: Hit
Die Bank of England hat beim MPC-Meeting am 30. Juli 2026 den Leitzins exakt wie vorhergesagt unverändert bei 3,75 % belassen. Das Abstimmungsergebnis war 6:3 für 'Hold' – drei Mitglieder (Huw Pill, Megan Greene, Catherine Mann) stimmten für eine Anhebung auf 4,00 %. Damit wurde die Vorhersage vollständig bestätigt. Interessant ist, dass die Mehrheit gegenüber dem Juni-Meeting schrumpfte (von 7:2 auf 6:3), was Analysten als 'hawkish hold' werteten, aber am Ergebnis (unverändert 3,75 %) nichts änderte.

Take-Two Interactive reports Q2 FY2027 (July–September 2026) results on November 9 after market close. Estimated analyst consensus: approx. -$0.45 EPS (heavy investment cycle around GTA VI and other AAA titles). TTWO has beaten consensus in 6 of the last 8 quarters; strong Recurrent Consumer Spending base (mobile, NBA 2K, GTA Online) consistently delivers positive surprises on cost discipline. Report date confirmed by TipRanks Earnings Calendar (as of Nov 8, 2026). Verification by TTWO Investor Relations or Bloomberg by November 10, 2026, 10:00 ET.

Constellation Energy reports Q3-FY2026 tomorrow (November 9, 2026) before market open. TradingView and Gurufocus put the EPS consensus at $3.90/share, with revenue consensus at $9.23B. CEG has beaten estimates in 7 of the last 8 quarters — an 87.5% historical beat rate. Driver: Structurally rising nuclear power demand for AI data centers (e.g., Microsoft contracts) boosts reactor utilization and secures stable cash flows. Risk: Stock fell ~9% post-midterm results, reflecting repriced regulatory uncertainty that could overshadow near-term operational strength. Strong fundamentals and consistent beat history nevertheless support another consensus beat.

Walmart has beaten EPS estimates for four consecutive quarters. The official consensus is $0.64/share — identical to the top of management guidance ($0.62–$0.64). Analysts average $0.72 (range $0.70–$0.73), anticipating another structural beat. Drivers: Robust US consumer (October CPI ~3.5–3.7%; September retail sales +0.8% MoM), ongoing grocery market share gains, and strong e-commerce and advertising growth. Risk: Management lowered full-year guidance after Q2; macro headwinds from elevated prices could compress volume mixes. The consistent beat history and structural tailwinds prevail.
