Tech sector
XLK183.52Latest recorded close · 2026-09-01Near-term read — probability, range, evidence
Tech sector slightly higher over the next 7 days: 55.1% chance of a higher close after combining history, scenarios and current evidence.
The forecast swing band is -3.9% to +1.6% over 7 days. This is the model's comparable-history zone, not a price target. The downside band is wider, so the read is cautious even when the headline probability is close to balanced.
The history anchor uses 1,008 comparable 7-day windows; the base rate was 57.1% higher before today’s factors were applied. Status: live tracking started; not enough resolved calls yet.
Today’s tilt came mainly from price behavior, the scenario graph, macro, rates and policy. Each forecast is saved and later scored, so this number will earn calibration over time instead of pretending certainty today.
