The S&P 500 closed near 7,677 in late August 2026 after reaching record highs above 7,798 earlier in the month, supported by robust second-quarter earnings growth exceeding 33% year-over-year and sustained AI-related capital spending. Sticky July PCE inflation at 3.7% has lifted the odds of a Federal Reserve rate hike at the September 16 FOMC meeting to around 40%, tempering enthusiasm despite the federal funds target range holding at 3.50-3.75%. Analysts' year-end 2026 median target stands near 7,900, reflecting optimism on profit momentum offset by valuation concerns and upcoming data including the September employment report, CPI, and Nvidia results. Trader positioning for September levels incorporates these near-term monetary policy and earnings catalysts.

Only prices achieved during the regular trading hours of the primary exchange on which the listed security trades (typically 9:30 AM – 4:00 PM ET) will be considered. Prices occurring during pre-market or after-hours trading will not qualify.
Prices will be used exactly as published by Pyth, without rounding.
In the event of a stock split, reverse stock split, or similar corporate action affecting the listed company during the listed time frame, this market will resolve based on split-adjusted prices as displayed on Pyth.
The target price will be adjusted proportionally to reflect any stock splits. Resolution will be based on the historical price data as shown on Pyth after any adjustments have been applied.
The resolution source for this market is Pyth — specifically, the S&P 500 (SPY) "High" and "Low" prices available at https://pythdata.app/explore/Equity.US.SPY%2FUSD, with the chart settings configured for 1-minute candles.
Historical 1-minute candles may be accessed by appending a Unix timestamp (seconds) to the Pyth chart URL using the "t=" parameter. Any timestamp within the listed market time frame may be used to view the relevant candle data (e.g., https://pythdata.app/explore/Equity.US.SPY%2FUSD?t=1773432000)
If the relevant Pyth data is unavailable due to a system outage, data failure, or other technical disruption that prevents verification of the required 1-minute candle data, the official daily high/low price published by the primary exchange on which the listed security trades will be used to determine whether the listed price was reached during the applicable trading session.
