This market will resolve according to the seasonally adjusted real GDP growth rate for the United States in 2026, as reported in the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) "Advance Estimate" release for Q4 of 2026, estimated to be released in January 2027. If the reported value falls exactly between two brackets, then this market will resolve to the higher range bracket. The GDP release will be made available here: https://www.bea.gov/data/gdp/gross-domestic-product Note: The relevant data will be the full-year real GDP growth rate as stated in the advance estimate, typically expressed as the percentage change from the annual level in 2025 to the annual level in 2026. Any revisions to this figure made after the release of the advance estimate will not be considered for this market's resolution.Recent second-quarter 2026 GDP growth of 1.5 percent annualized, below the prior quarter’s 2.1 percent and softer than many forecasts, has anchored trader consensus around moderate expansion for the full year. With market-implied odds nearly even between the 1.5–2.0 percent and 2.0–2.5 percent ranges, positioning reflects uncertainty over whether investment-led gains from AI-related capex and fiscal measures can offset softer consumer spending, tariff headwinds, and labor-market cooling. Professional forecasters’ central projections cluster near 2.1–2.2 percent, yet the close contest highlights sensitivity to upcoming data releases on inflation, employment, and third-quarter output that could shift probabilities between these adjacent bins.
