Polymarket suffered a vulnerability attack from a third-party vendor, leading to the theft of approximately $3 million, and the platform has pledged full compensation.

2 hours ago

Prediction market platform Polymarket disclosed on Thursday that a third-party vendor of its was hacked, with attackers injecting malicious code into the platform’s frontend to steal roughly $3 million in Polymarket’s proprietary stablecoin pUSD from fewer than 15 user accounts. The funds were later converted to ETH and aggregated into a single Ethereum wallet, and as of press time, the assets have not been moved. Polymarket noted that the frontend vulnerability has been identified and patched, with affected users to receive full compensation, though the platform declined to name the specific compromised vendor. This marks Polymarket’s second security incident in two months. Last month, hackers exploited a private key leak to breach an internal wallet used for user deposits and reward distributions, leading to approximately $700,000 in losses. Both incidents were peripheral breaches that did not impact the core protocol, but the consecutive security lapses underscore the potential risks stemming from the platform’s reliance on third-party vendors. Polymarket had recently faced controversy over a Wall Street Journal investigation that alleged it illegally marketed to U.S. users through simulated trades and fake profit videos; the latest security incident has added further pressure on the platform.

Wall Street consensus has converged: S&P 500’s year-end target of 8,000 has emerged as a new psychological anchor, with bulls and conservative forecasters lifting their outlooks in lockstep.

Wall Street’s differing views on year-end U.S. stock market levels are narrowing, with 8,000 points for the S&P 500 emerging as a new psychological anchor. Fundstrat raised its year-end target for the index from 7,700 to 8,000; Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Deutsche Bank, and Societe Generale have also set targets near this level. Goldman Sachs previously lifted its 2026 S&P 500 target from 7,600 to 8,000, citing that earnings growth and AI investments continue to underpin the index, rather than relying solely on valuation expansion. Even the more conservative cohort is boosting targets: JPMorgan Chase raised its target from 7,600 to 7,800, while Barclays and Stifel also adjusted their year-end targets to 7,800. Barclays lifted its 2026 S&P 500 earnings per share forecast from $321 to $337, and set a 2027 target of 8,800 points. The shared rationale behind these moves includes upward revisions to corporate earnings, AI capital expenditure, improved visibility into tech sector profits, and easing geopolitical risks. However, this consensus does not equate to zero risk. JPMorgan Chase warned that momentum stocks, semiconductors, storage stocks, and second-tier AI concepts have become overcrowded in trading, and low-quality and speculative growth stocks may see sharp declines. It favors a barbell allocation strategy of "quality growth + low-volatility quality".
