Major technology firms continue restructuring workforces around artificial intelligence capabilities, with AI cited as the leading driver of cuts for the second straight month. Through late May 2026, U.S. tech layoffs have already reached 85,000–148,000 depending on the tracker—on pace to exceed 2025’s roughly 127,000 total—with April alone seeing 33,000 reductions. Companies including Meta, Intuit, Wix, and Cloudflare have announced thousands of roles eliminated to boost efficiency, automate tasks, and redirect spending toward large language model infrastructure, even as revenues rise. Hiring manager surveys show 55% anticipate further cuts this year, 44% explicitly tied to AI productivity gains, reinforcing trader consensus that 2026 totals will rise.

This market will resolve to "Down" if there are more layoffs in the information sector in 2025 than in 2026.
This market will resolve to 50-50 if the totals are the same in 2025 and 2026.
If not all relevant data points are published by June 30, 2027, ET, data published up until this point will be used to determine the 2026 total.
Revisions to previous data points after all relevant data points have been released will not be considered.
This market's resolution source will be the Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED), specifically the monthly 'Layoffs and Discharges: Information' within the Job Openings and Labor Turnover (Not Seasonally Adjusted) (https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/JTU5100LDL).
Changes in the methodology by which the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports data will have no bearing on the resolution of this market.
The resolution source reports the values as whole numbers (thousands of persons). Thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving the market.
