This market will resolve to "Yes" if the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) holds an emergency meeting after which the upper bound of the target federal funds rate is lowered between November 11, 2025 and December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". An emergency meeting is defined as any unscheduled meeting called by the Federal Reserve Board or the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) apart from the regular eight pre-scheduled meetings for 2025 and the regular eight pre-scheduled meetings for 2026. The resolution source will be official announcements from the Federal Reserve’s website (federalreserve.gov) or credible news sources reporting on the emergency meeting.Persistent above-target inflation, with July 2026 CPI at 3.4% year-over-year and core PCE near 3.3%, alongside a resilient labor market showing unemployment near 4.1-4.2%, has anchored the federal funds rate at 3.50%-3.75% following the July FOMC meeting. The Fed's dual mandate focus on price stability, reinforced by supply shocks and energy price pressures, has shifted trader consensus toward holding or modest tightening through 2026, supporting the 93% market-implied probability against an emergency rate cut before 2027. Upcoming September and December meetings, along with August CPI and employment data, represent key catalysts that could influence positioning, though a sudden recession or sharp labor market deterioration would be required to alter the current skin-in-the-game outlook.
