Predicted for 29. October 2026
·
Based on: Historical Cycle
The ECB Governing Council meets on 29 October 2026 without updated macro projections (non-projection meeting). The deposit rate has stood at 2.50% since 16 September 2026. Market swap instruments price a 72% probability of no change (financecalendar.com). Eurozone CPI flash for October 2026 is projected above 3.0% (prevailing Cassandra scenario), structurally arguing against a further cut. Without new projections at this meeting, there is little policy impetus for change; a hold at 2.50% remains the most likely outcome.
Data basis for this prediction
- EZB Einlagenzins: 2,50% seit 16. September 2026 (ecb.europa.eu, centralbanking.com)
- Swap-Märkte: 72% Wahrscheinlichkeit Halten bei 2,50% am 29. Okt. (financecalendar.com, 3. Okt. 2026)
- Eurozone CPI Flash Oktober 2026: über 3,0% prognostiziert (Eurostat / Cassandra-Szenario)
- EZB Oktober 2026: Non-Projection Meeting, keine aktualisierten Makroprojektionen (ecb.europa.eu)

Verdict: Hit
Die EZB hat am 29. Oktober 2026 den Einlagenzins unverändert bei 2,50% belassen (ebenso Hauptrefinanzierungssatz 2,65%, Spitzenrefinanzierungssatz 2,90%). Bestätigt durch zahlreiche Quellen: euribor-rates.info, Euronews, Deutsche Wirtschaftsnachrichten, ms-aktuell.de u.a. Die tatsächliche Eurozoneniinflation lag mit 3,8% sogar noch deutlich über dem in der Vorhersage genannten 3,0%-Schwellenwert, was das Halten strukturell stützte. Ausschlaggebend war die Kombination aus anhaltend hoher Inflation (fast doppelt so hoch wie das 2%-Ziel) und fehlenden neuen Makroprojektionen (Non-Projection Meeting) – exakt der in der Vorhersage genannte Mechanismus.

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.
