**Xi Jinping's anti-corruption campaign dominates 2026 political dynamics, with aggressive purges targeting People's Liberation Army (PLA) leadership for loyalty and graft concerns.** In January, senior Central Military Commission (CMC) vice chairman Zhang Youxia—a longtime Xi ally and Vietnam War veteran—and chief of staff Liu Zhenli were removed, decimating the 2022-formed body to just Xi and one other member, spanning Rocket Force, air force, and theater commands focused on Taiwan. February saw 19 National People's Congress (NPC) deputies—including nine military officers—expelled ahead of Two Sessions, followed by three retired generals ousted from the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) in early March. Xi's rare February reference to strengthened military anti-corruption signals ongoing probes by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI). Traders eye public absences, investigations, or legislative removals amid Taiwan tensions and 2027 Party Congress preparations, as purges prioritize control over operational experience.

This market will resolve to “Yes” if either of the following conditions are met by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”.
1) The listed individual is removed or resigns from their primary political post or from their position, if any, on the Chinese Politburo or its standing committee, with a consensus of credible reporting describing the resignation/removal as a “purge”, “ousting”, or similar language, or to have presumably or definitively occurred as a result of corruption, bribery, other criminal wrongdoing, or a lack of political favor.
2) The listed individual is expelled from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
Qualifying announcements and reporting of a purge before this market's end date will immediately resolve this market to "Yes", regardless of when the announced resignation/removal/expulsion goes into effect.
A listed individual leaving office at the end of a regularly scheduled term, or being removed/resigning from office without a consensus of credible reporting describing the resignation/removal as a “purge”, “ousting”, or similar language, or to have presumably or definitively occurred as a result of corruption, bribery, other criminal wrongdoing, or a lack of political favor, will not qualify.
