Trader consensus on Polymarket prices a 98.6% implied probability for March 2026 CPI year-over-year inflation at ≥2.8%, reflecting aggregated bets backed by $3 million in volume amid nowcasting models like Cleveland Fed's projecting a robust 0.84% month-over-month headline gain. February's CPI held steady at 2.4% headline and 2.5% core year-over-year, but hotter February producer prices and the FOMC's March 18 upward revision to 2026 PCE inflation forecasts to 2.7% have shifted sentiment toward reacceleration via sticky shelter costs and energy pressures. Markets price economist medians near 3.2%, with the broad ≥2.8% bin minimizing tail risks; a sharper-than-expected energy pullback could challenge, ahead of the April 10 release.
