About this projection

The S&P 500 implied open is derived from the front-month ES=F futures contract using the cost-of-carry fair-value model: the futures price is discounted by the USD risk-free rate net of expected index dividends over the remaining time to contract expiry.

The projection tracks where the index will open at the 9:30 a.m. ET opening bell in New York. The 1σ band around the projection is sized from the Cboe VIX 30-day implied-volatility index, and the number refreshes continuously while futures trade overnight.
