Qualcomm reports Q3 FY2026 on July 29 after market close. Consensus: approx. USD 1.40 Non-GAAP EPS — a sharp decline vs. USD 2.29 a year ago (mobile market dynamics, elevated chip inventories). Qualcomm has historically beaten EPS consensus in ~75% of quarters. Edge-AI chips (Snapdragon X Elite for PCs) could be a positive surprise. Headwinds: Arm licensing negotiations, weak China smartphone demand. No Polymarket market found.

Verdict: Miss

Qualcomm meldete am 29. Juli 2026 nach Börsenschluss einen Non-GAAP EPS von 2,21 USD – weit über dem in der Vorhersage angenommenen Konsens von 1,40 USD, aber knapp unter dem tatsächlichen Marktkonsens von ~2,22–2,23 USD (Quellen: TradingView, Shacknews, Investing.com). Die Vorhersage scheitert auf zwei Ebenen: (1) Der angenommene Konsens von 1,40 USD war massiv falsch – der reale Konsens lag bei ~2,23 USD, was zeigt, dass die Ausgangsprämisse der Vorhersage fundamental fehlerhaft war. (2) Qualcomm verfehlte sogar den echten Konsens um 0,02 USD (EPS-Miss), statt ihn zu schlagen. Umsatz zwar geschlagen (9,95 Mrd. USD vs. ~9,69 Mrd. erwartet), aber EPS-Miss und schwacher Q4-Ausblick (u. a. wegen Apple-Umsatzrückgang und sinkender Handset-Nachfrage) ließen die Aktie im Nachhandel um ~7 % fallen.

Applied Materials Inc. (NASDAQ: AMAT) beats Q4 FY2026 EPS consensus of $4.06 per share — earnings report November 12, 2026 after market close (confirmed by Applied Materials Investor Relations or Bloomberg by November 13, 2026, 10:00 AM ET)

Applied Materials has beaten the EPS consensus in all four of its last reported quarters, with an average earnings surprise of +3.5%. The company's own Q4 guidance is $3.82–$4.22 per share; consensus at $4.06 sits near the midpoint, reflecting classic conservative management framing. Revenue is estimated at $10.30B (+51% YoY) — TSMC and Samsung have not pulled back H2 2026 capex plans. No Polymarket market directly available; a 100% beat streak over 4 quarters with a positive guidance range implies 70–75% probability. Risk: supply chain delays or expanded US export controls on advanced chips could force a Q5 inventory build.

Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE: PLTR) closes above $185.00 per share on at least one trading day in November 2026 — confirmed by Nasdaq or Bloomberg by December 1, 2026

PLTR closed at $175.40 on November 4, 2026 (after-hours: $170.88, -2.58%; intraday high: $176.54; 52-week high: $212.94). Palantir clearly beat Q3-FY2026 EPS consensus: total revenue $2.313B, US Commercial revenue +148% YoY to $984M. The $185 threshold is +5.5% above the closing price or +8.3% above after-hours levels.

Cerebras Systems (NASDAQ: CBRS) closes below $100.00 per share on November 10, 2026 (confirmed by Nasdaq or Bloomberg by November 11, 2026)

CBRS trades at $109.18 (October 30, 2026) — already 61% below its all-time high of $279.72. The final and largest lockup expiration is scheduled for November 10, 2026: approximately 19.4 million shares are unlocked (of three tranches of 19.4M each). Prior lockup tranches have consistently weighed on the stock. Insiders have sold ~$394.6M in shares since the May 2026 IPO — zero insider purchases. A Culper Research short-seller report has triggered multiple investigations. A close below $100 requires a ~8.4% decline — plausible given the expected supply pressure on expiration day.
