Home Depot meldete die Q2-FY2026-Ergebnisse am 18. August 2026 (einen Tag früher als die prognostizierten 19. August). Der bereinigte Non-GAAP-EPS lag bei 4,92 USD und übertraf damit sowohl den tatsächlichen Konsensschätzung von ca. 4,73 USD als auch den in der Vorhersage angenommenen Konsens von ~4,80 USD deutlich. Auch der Umsatz von 47,86 Mrd. USD (+5,7 % YoY) übertraf die Erwartungen. Die Vorhersage ist klar eingetreten.

S&P 500 (^GSPC) closes above 7,500 points on 17 September 2026 (first trading day after the 16 September FOMC decision), confirmed by NYSE closing or Bloomberg by 17 September 2026

The S&P 500 closed at 7,591 on 10 September 2026 (-0.59%), weighed by high oil prices (Brent $105.71) and US-Iran tensions. The probability of a 25bp FOMC rate hike on 16 September stands at 62% (CME FedWatch), Kalshi 57%, Polymarket 56% – largely priced in. Historically, markets react more moderately to anticipated rate moves than to surprises. The 7,500 threshold equals a 1.2% drop over seven trading days – unlikely from an anticipated hike alone. Main risk: hawkish FOMC statement or acute Gulf escalation.

S&P 500 (^GSPC) closes above 7,450 points on 30 September 2026 (confirmed by NYSE closing price or Bloomberg by 30 September 2026)

The S&P 500 closed at 7,636.36 on 9 September 2026. Falling below 7,450 by month-end would require a 2.4% decline. Headwinds: Fed rate hike of 25bp on 16 September (CentralBank.Watch: 59% probability), August PPI above expectations (+5.4% YoY), Iran-Gulf risk premium. Stabilizing factors: hike largely priced in (Polymarket: 93% for zero 2026 cuts), Q2 earnings solid, no recession signals. Historically, a single 25bp September hike rarely causes a monthly decline above 2.5%.
