Trader sentiment on a Supreme Court vacancy in 2026 tilts slightly toward yes at 54.5%, reflecting persistent speculation around Justices Samuel Alito (turning 76 in April) and Clarence Thomas (78 in June) potentially retiring before the November midterms, when Senate control could shift and complicate confirmations under President Trump. February rumors peaked over Alito's 20-year tenure milestone and upcoming book release timed near the October term start, echoing historical patterns like end-of-term announcements from Kennedy and Breyer. No official statements confirm plans—Alito and others have signaled intent to stay—creating balance amid health uncertainties and strategic timing pressures. A retirement announcement, health event, or death would surge yes odds; prolonged silence or robust Court participation could push no above 50%.
