Recent geopolitical developments, including the ongoing Middle East conflict and associated energy price volatility, have driven downward revisions to 2026 global GDP growth forecasts, with the IMF’s April 2026 World Economic Outlook projecting 3.1 percent under a limited-conflict baseline—down from 3.3 percent in January. This uncertainty, compounded by trade tensions and policy shifts, has produced tightly clustered market-implied odds around the 3.0–3.1 percent outcomes, reflecting trader consensus on resilient technology and AI investment offsetting headwinds from higher inflation, softening trade volumes, and uneven regional performance. Key upcoming data releases on inflation, nonfarm payrolls, and central bank communications will likely influence whether probabilities shift toward the 3.2 percent or sub-3.0 percent buckets.

The relevant figure may be found in the table titled “World Economic Outlook Growth Projections” under “Estimate” in the row “World Output” and the column “2026”. Changes in the IMF’s World Economic Outlook reporting format will not disqualify a published figure from counting.
The GDP release will be made available here: https://www.imf.org/en/publications/weo
If no estimate of the 2026 annual percent change in world real GDP is released in a World Economic Outlook Update between the October 2026 and April 2027 editions of the World Economic Outlook, this market will resolve according to the published figure for 2026 annual percent change in World real GDP in the April 2027 edition of the World Economic Outlook. If no such figure is published by April 30, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, another credible resolution source will be chosen.
If multiple World Economic Outlook Updates are released between the October 2026 and April 2027 editions of the World Economic Outlook, this market will resolve based on the first such publication which includes an estimate of the 2026 annual percent change in World GDP. Projections of World GDP, however, will not be considered.
Note: data from the initial release of the referenced GDP report is what will be used to resolve this market. Data may be revised during the following release or as a part of the next estimate's publication, however any revisions to GDP report data made after the initial release will not be considered for this market's resolution.
Note: the resolution source for this market reports annual percent change in world real GDP to one decimal point (e.g. 3.3%). Thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving the market.
