Polymarket traders overwhelmingly favor no Federal Reserve rate change at the July 30-31 FOMC meeting (76% implied probability), anchored by sticky core inflation at 3.3% year-over-year in June CPI data and resilient June nonfarm payrolls adding 206,000 jobs with unemployment steady at 4.1%. These figures signal a soft landing without the distress needed for an immediate cut, aligning with the Fed's June dot plot forecasting just one 25 bps reduction later in 2024—likely September. Hawkish comments from Powell and others have capped 25 bps cut odds at 16%, while hikes remain fringe bets below 6%, as balanced risks keep policy on hold.

This market will resolve to the amount of basis points the upper bound of the target federal funds rate is changed by versus the level it was prior to the Federal Reserve's July 2026 meeting.
If the target federal funds rate is changed to a level not expressed in the displayed options, the change will be rounded up to the nearest 25 and will resolve to the relevant bracket. (e.g. if there's a cut/increase of 12.5 bps it will be considered to be 25 bps)
The resolution source for this market is the FOMC’s statement after its meeting scheduled for July 28-29, 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.
This market may resolve as soon as the FOMC’s statement for their July meeting with relevant data is issued. If no statement is released by the end date of the next scheduled meeting, this market will resolve to the "No change" bracket.
