This market will resolve according to the exact amount of cuts of 25 basis points in 2026 by the Fed (including any cuts made during the December meeting).
Emergency rate cuts outside of scheduled FOMC meetings will also count toward the total number of cuts in 2026. This market will remain open until December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, to account for any such emergency actions.
For example, if the Fed cuts rates by 50 bps after a meeting, it would be considered 2 cuts (of 25 bps each).
This market will resolve early to "No" if the specified number of cuts becomes impossible — i.e., if more cuts have already occurred than the strike in question.
Note that cuts between 1–24 bps (inclusive) will also be considered 1 rate cut.
The resolution source for this market will be FOMC statements after meetings scheduled in 2026 according to the official calendar: https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/fomccalendars.htm. The level and change of the target federal funds rate is also published at the official website of the Federal Reserve at https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/openmarket.htm.

Why is the pricing on this market misaligned with the "fed decision in december" market?

wont happen in the same year, fed policy actions take anywhere between 8-12 months or even longer to realize their impact on the economy, therefore it would be premature to do anything until you see what your cuts or hikes are doing to the economy
If the Fed raises interest rates by 25 basis points and then cuts rates by 25 basis points, is this regarded as one rate cut?

If I'm so delusional, then why am I up 4x on my account since I started polymarket last February, while you're down badly?
chessbot74d
Uhm, actually the betting on No's has been a recent strategy switch which has been quite profitable as thankfully there exists delusional people like yourself. For the moment there are no markets where I have any tangible advantage so I just hold some relatively safe bets
C
Cryptostradamus74d
Also looking at your past performance, always betting on No, nothing bad is ever gonna happen, hasn't brought you too much success. No offense.

Cryptostradamus74d
Projections don't matter. Look at what happened at the start of covid. They made two emergency meetings and dropped interest rates to zero immediately. That's what happens when the system threatens to crash and it will happen again.
chessbot75d
Alright, well that $7.5 is gone then... They aren't cutting in 2026. The projections suggest potential cuts in 2027 however

How can I lose "so much money". I put only 7.5$. My avg price is 0.3c. If I win, I'll make 2500$. It's an asymmetric bet and I have a good chance of winning it because I know what's coming this fall.

Soft PPI sinks the hike argument. Data don't lie. Hikes pushed to December while cuts is in the table.

Soft CPI print would allow for possible rate cut in Oct/Dec with QT to offset it

12+ let's go! I told you guys. This year is not gonna end well for the worlds economy and then the Fed will have no other choice.
C
Cryptostradamus92d
You guys don't know what's coming. Economies are going to collapse this fall. Interest rates will drop to zero. 12+ will give me a 300x return.

Sticky inflation and hawkish Fed signals make zero or one 2026 rate cut the most plausible outcome

Watch Warsh would say policy is neutral then start rate cuts with QT

Rules: "If the Fed cuts rates by 50 bps after a meeting, it would be considered 2 cuts (of 25 bps each)."
C
Cryptostradamus106d
What if they cut 75bps at once, does that count as 1 or 3 rate cuts?
C
Cryptostradamus106d
After a black swan event, rates can drop quickly.

There will 100% be no rate cuts.
zippo32moldranz110d
there is no outcome that can currently be described as 100%

A rate increase is not a cut, so the counter stays at 0.

How would a rate increase resolve? 0 resolved to Yes, or everything resolves to No?

Jeffrey-Einstein137d
theres barely even a single cut on the table, the consensus is no cuts or a hike. the data doesnt support any kind of cuts now with rising unemployment, slow job growth, and sticky inflation. the fed has no choice but to wait and see which of the two forces is stronger

A classic in the human mind: if we don't know something, it's been manipulated.

whumpa164d
They are cooking fedwatch and general public opinion to lower the inflation expectations. Lieing also prevents the speculative investors from frontrunning. Polymarket odds are about right. We'll probably get rate cuts.

tough markets to trade… my prediction market agent at pref[trade] just flagged that there’s some disparity with fedwatch.
