Traders price a government shutdown at 98% implied probability ahead of the March 14, 2025, funding deadline set by the December 20 continuing resolution, as incoming President Trump, Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson, and allies like Elon Musk via the Department of Government Efficiency demand steep spending cuts conflicting with Democratic insistence on baseline funding levels including Ukraine aid. This fiscal standoff echoes past brinkmanship like the 2023 near-shutdowns. Conditional on a shutdown, Democrats hold an 83% edge for 2026 House control (81.9% vs. Republicans' 16.3%), aligning with historical midterm losses for the president's party—GOP ceded 40 seats in 2018—exacerbated by the GOP's slim current majority and potential voter backlash from shutdown disruptions. Upcoming debt ceiling talks in early 2025 add escalation risks.

The rules and resolution criteria are as follows:
1. Will there be another US government shutdown by January 31?
This market will resolve according to whether the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) announces another federal government shutdown due to a lapse in appropriations by January 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET.
Partial shutdowns count as shutdowns; announcements of office closures due to holidays or inclement weather do not qualify as a shutdown.
The resolution source for this market will be OPM’s Operating Status page (https://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/snow-dismissal-procedures/current-status/).
2. Which party will win the House in 2026?
This market will resolve according to the party that controls the House of Representatives following the 2026 U.S. House elections scheduled for November 3, 2026.
House control is defined as having more than half of the voting members of the U.S. House of Representatives.
If the outcome of this election is ambiguous given the above rules, this market will remain open until the Speaker of the House is selected following the 2026 U.S. general election, at which point it will resolve to the party the Speaker is affiliated with at the time of their election to that position. If the elected Speaker does not caucus with any listed party this market will resolve “Other”.
Determination of which party controls the House after the 2026 U.S. House elections will be based on a consensus of credible reporting, or if there is ambiguity, final federal and/or state election authority certification or other final official determination of the 2026 election results.
