House Republicans' razor-thin majority continues to underpin trader consensus on low near-term odds for Speaker Mike Johnson's ouster, as a motion to vacate requires minimal defections to trigger a floor vote. Recent passage of a December 20 continuing resolution averting a government shutdown drew criticism from fiscal hawks like Reps. Massie and Norman for lacking spending cuts, echoing past tensions that felled Kevin McCarthy, yet Johnson secured Democratic votes and President-elect Trump's endorsement to hold the gavel. No challenge has materialized amid holiday recess, but early 2025 budget battles and potential Trump agenda clashes could elevate risks if hardliner dissent grows.

Note that an announcement of his resignation before the resolution date will suffice to resolve this market to "Yes" regardless of if/when he actually steps down.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the Government of the United States of America or official statements by Mike Johnson or his representative, however a consensus of credible reporting will suffice.
