Predicted for 30. September 2026

Based on: Statistical Pattern
Germany's HICP was +2.9% YoY in August 2026 – just below the market expectation of 3.0% (FXStreet: 'slower than expected'). Energy prices accelerated to +10.5% YoY in August (from +8.3% in July and +3.4% in June), driven by Iran-war oil-price pass-through. Core inflation (HICP ex energy/food) holds at 2.6%. For September, energy base effects are more favorable as oil prices were still lower in autumn 2025 – supporting a further rise in the energy component and thus a Headline HICP crossing 3.0%. No direct prediction market for September German HICP found; calibration accounts for the August miss.
Data basis for this prediction
- Destatis: Germany HICP August 2026 = +2.9% YoY, energy +10.5% (flash, August 29, 2026)

Verdict: Hit
Destatis veröffentlichte am 30. September 2026 den Flash-HVPI für Deutschland: +3,3 % YoY (vorläufig), deutlich über dem Schwellenwert von 3,0 %. Haupttreiber war die Energiekomponente, die von +10,5 % im August auf +14,9 % im September beschleunigte – exakt der in der Vorhersage beschriebene Iran-Kriegs-Ölpreiseffekt kombiniert mit günstigen Basiseffekten aus Herbst 2025. Die Kerninflation (HVPI ex Energie/Lebensmittel) sank leicht von 2,6 % auf 2,5 %, spielte aber keine ausschlaggebende Rolle.

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.
