A microprocessor includes a queue comprising a plurality of entries each configured to hold store information for a store instruction. The store information specifies sources of operands used to calculate a store address. The store instruction specifies store data to be stored to a memory location identified by the store address. The microprocessor also includes control logic, coupled to the queue, configured to encounter a load instruction. The load instruction includes load information that specifies sources of operands used to calculate a load address. The control logic detects that the load information matches the store information held in a valid one of the plurality of queue entries and responsively predicts that the microprocessor should forward to the load instruction the store data specified by the store instruction whose store information matches the load information.
