Predicted for 6. September 2026
·
Based on: Historical Cycle
OPEC+ decided on August 2, 2026, to increase output by 188,000 bpd for September, completing the full unwinding of all 2023 voluntary cuts (WorldOil, CNBC, 02.08.2026). Delegates told Bloomberg the group does not plan further increases for the rest of 2026 ('pauses increase from Q4'). The regular monitoring meeting on September 6 will decide on October. Consistently, the October 5 ministerial meeting (open Cassandra prediction) is expected to decide on November only (+137,000 bpd per Gulf News). October output thus expected to remain flat.

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%.
