Blue agave (Agave tequilana Weber) spot price in Jalisco stays below MXN 16.00 per kg through December 31, 2026

Pending ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 11. July 2026 · Predicted for 31. December 2026 · Based on: Statistical Pattern
Probability
72%

Blue agave prices in Jalisco stood at MXN 10–11/kg in July 2026, far below the 2022 peak of MXN 32/kg. IWSR forecast in 2024 that 'prices will not hit the bottom until 2026'. Structural oversupply from the 2018–2022 boom cycle persists. Reaching MXN 16/kg by December would require a +45–60% increase from current levels – unlikely even with an expected price trough in 2026. US tariff risk on tequila adds further headwinds. Verifiable via Mezcalistas.com or CRT price reports. No prediction market; own estimate 72%.

Starbucks (NASDAQ: SBUX) beats the adjusted EPS consensus for Q3 FY2026 (April–June 2026) on August 4, 2026

Starbucks reports Q3 FY2026 (April–June quarter) on August 4, 2026 after market close. Under CEO Brian Niccol (since September 2024, ex-Chipotle), a turnaround is underway: menu simplification, peak-hour focus, staff stabilization. After several weak quarters, analyst expectations are set low, increasing the beat probability. Large US consumer staple companies historically beat adjusted EPS consensus 65–75% of the time. Risks: high Arabica prices (~325 US cents/lb per existing forecast) and ongoing China headwinds push the probability slightly below sector average.

ICE NY Cocoa September 2026 (CCU26) trades above $5,500 per tonne on 12 July 2026

Cocoa is a key commodity for chocolate beverages, cocoa RTDs and hot cocoa drinks. Open Cassandra predictions anchor CCU26 above $5,700/tonne on 14 July and above $5,400/tonne on 18 July — the interpolated range for 12 July sits in the $5,500–$5,800 corridor. Structurally elevated cocoa prices reflect ongoing harvest failures in Côte d'Ivoire and Ghana from El Niño aftereffects and disease pressure. A drop below $5,500 on 12 July would contradict both downstream anchors and would require an extreme, unannounced event. No Polymarket quote available.
