Trader consensus on Polymarket has priced a US bank failure by May 31 at 100% implied probability following the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation's (FDIC) seizure of Chicago-based Metropolitan Capital Bank & Trust on January 30, 2026—the first such failure of the year amid institution-specific credit weaknesses, with $261 million in assets and an estimated $19.7 million hit to the Deposit Insurance Fund. This isolated event, driven by regulatory intervention rather than systemic pressures, satisfies the market's resolution criteria well ahead of the deadline, locking in near-certain Yes odds backed by real capital at stake. Tail risks remain negligible, though improbable challenges to the failure's classification under FDIC standards could theoretically arise before resolution.
