The FED interest rates are defined in this market by the lower or the upper bound of the target federal funds range. The decisions on the target federal fund range are made by the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meetings. This market will resolve to “Yes” if the lower or the upper bound of the target federal funds rate reaches the specified level at any point by December 31, 2026, 12:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No.” Emergency rate cuts and hikes outside the regularly scheduled meetings will be considered. The resolution source for this market is the official website of the Federal Reserve at: https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/openmarket.htm. This market may resolve as soon as the relevant data showing the reached level is published.The Federal Reserve’s September 16, 2026 decision to raise the target range 25 basis points to 3.75–4.00%—its first hike since 2023—reflects persistent inflation near 3.4% year-over-year and a solid labor market. The accompanying dot plot shows a median federal funds rate of 4.1% at year-end 2026, implying one additional 25-basis-point increase before December, followed by steady policy through 2027 at that level. Market-implied futures currently price a similar path, with the effective rate near 3.88%. Key near-term catalysts include the October 28 FOMC meeting and December 9 decision, alongside upcoming CPI, employment, and GDP releases that will test whether inflation moderates enough to pause further tightening or if stronger data sustains the higher-rate consensus into 2027.
