Probability

58%

Starship IFT-13 launches July 23, 2026 from 22:45 UTC at Starbase Texas. Per SpaceX mission profile, Ship 30 should complete a controlled splashdown in the Indian Ocean off Western Australia ~65 min after launch, following an in-space Raptor relight and landing flip maneuver. This forecast is complementary to existing predictions (booster droneboat in Gulf of Mexico; Starlink V3 suborbital deployment). No Polymarket market found for Ship splashdown specifically. IFT-12 (Nov. 2025) first achieved successful Ship reentry; IFT-13 must repeat it under a more complex payload profile with 20 Starlink V3 satellites deployed suborbital. Success probability increased but Ship reentry remains technically demanding.

SpaceX Startfenster 23.07.2026, 22:45 UTC (spacelaunchschedule.com)
IFT-13 Payload: 20 Starlink-V3-Satelliten, suborbital (space.com)
IFT-13 Erststart 16. Juli abgebrochen; Neustart 23. Juli bestätigt (space.com, 20.07.2026)

Verdict: Miss

[Vorzeitig entschieden] SpaceX IFT-13 nutzt Booster 20 und Ship 40 (S40), nicht Ship 30. Zudem fand der Start nicht am 23. Juli statt (verschoben auf 24. Juli). Das in der Vorhersage beschriebene Ereignis (Ship 30, Start 23. Juli) ist damit unmöglich eingetreten. Quellen: Wikipedia Starship FT-13, Space.com.

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. Typical post-earnings 'sell the news' may weigh short-term, but the 52-week high of $212.94 confirms the level is reachable. NVIDIA earnings on November 18, 2026 could serve as a sector-wide catalyst. No direct Polymarket equivalent; own estimate: ~42%.

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.
