Predicted for 22. July 2026
·
Based on: Statistical Pattern
ONS data for May 2026 showed UK CPI at +2.8% YoY (unchanged from April). Transport made the largest positive contribution at +6.8% YoY. For June, no deflationary shocks are visible: energy prices rose due to the Hormuz crisis, wages remain elevated, and services inflation is stubbornly high (Babypips: 'services surge'). UK inflation has consistently hovered in the 2.7–2.9% range throughout 2026. Structurally, a drop below 2.5% in a single month without a clear supply shock can be ruled out. No direct prediction market value for UK June CPI identified.

Verdict: Hit
ONS veröffentlichte am 22. Juli 2026 den UK-CPI für Juni 2026 mit +2,6 % YoY (gegenüber +2,8 % im Mai). Damit liegt der Wert klar über der Schwelle von 2,5 %, womit die Vorhersage eingetreten ist. Der Rückgang war durch sinkende Kraftstoffpreise (Diesel −10,7 p/Liter) und nachlassende Lebensmittelinflation (+1,7 %) getrieben, aber nicht stark genug, um unter 2,5 % zu fallen.

Polymarket shows a 53% probability for a 25 basis point hike as of September 10, 2026. US Core CPI August 2026 (release September 11) is expected by market consensus to be above 3.0% YoY. The ECB raised its deposit rate by 25 bps to 2.50% on September 10, 2026 – an inflation-fighting signal that provides cover for the Fed. Against a hike: a mild slowdown in US industrial output. CME FedWatch also shows ~53% probability for a hike.

Bitcoin at $78,136 (September 9, 2026). Kalshi markets assign ~83% probability of BTC touching $100,000 at any point in 2026. Polymarket gives BTC 68% odds to close above $90,000 by year-end. A year-end close above $100,000 (not just a touch) is more demanding: median year-end contract estimates imply ~$81,000. Arguments for >$100k close: historical Q4 seasonality (+49% in Q4 2024, +56% in Q4 2023), ETF inflows, institutional demand. Headwinds: active Fed hiking cycle (~3.75% current funds rate), 10yr yield at 4.86%.
