Fox Sports' lead College Football analyst Joel Klatt reveals the 10 games that will shape the 2026 College Football Season. From huge early season Big Ten-SEC matchups between Michigan and Oklahoma and Ohio State at Texas to the return of Lane Kiffin to Oxford, he breaks down which games will have the biggest impact on the sport in 2026. Klatt explains why a cross-country trip could determine if USC is ready to make a Playoff push and why a rematch of the Big Ten Championship Game gives Indiana a huge opportunity to assert themselves over the Buckeyes. Miami's trip to South Bend offers the Fighting Irish a chance to avenge the loss that kept them out of last year's Playoff and “The Game” between Ohio State and Michigan will have a new coach looking to put his stamp on the rivalry.

Krieg im Nahen Osten - war das ein Schwarzer Schwan für die Börsen? „Ein Schwarzer Schwan war es nicht - das wäre ein total überraschendes Ereignis. Wir hatten ja schon Wochen und Tage vorher Anzeichen. Überraschender waren die Gegenschläge vom Iran", so Jessica Schwarzer. Jens Klatt (XTB-Marktanalyst): „Wir sind verhältnismäßig solide unterwegs. Die Abschläge zu Wochenbeginn waren erwartbar. Zur Mitte der Woche haben wir wieder Käufe gesehen. Besonders stark getroffen hat es vielleicht den Dax im Vergleich zur Wall Street. Die hat recht stark gehalten. Gefühlt haben wir das Schlimmste überstanden." Buchautorin und Finanzjournalistin Schwarzer ergänzt: „Wenn man langfristig investiert, kann man solche Dips schon nutzen und nachkaufen. Ich bin Team breit gestreut. Nicht die Nerven verlieren und das Depot wild umschichten." Und droht jetzt ein Energiepreis-Schock? „Wenn man die Spikes beim Ukraine-Krieg erlebt hat, ist es aktuell mehr ein Sturm im Wasserglas. Ich bin skeptisch. Die Aufschläge kommen und es hängt sicherlich davon ab, wie sich die Lage in der Straße von Hormus entwickelt. In Summe hält sich der Ölpreis solide", so der XTB-Experte Klatt.
