Major technology companies have accelerated workforce reductions in 2026 through artificial intelligence automation and operational restructuring, with year-to-date layoffs already tracking above 2025 totals according to multiple trackers. AI is now the leading cited reason for cuts across firms like Meta, Microsoft, and Amazon, as executives redirect resources toward model development and efficiency gains while trimming non-core roles. Recent monthly spikes, including over 30,000 tech cuts in May alone, reflect sustained cost discipline amid strong revenue growth. This pattern, combined with hiring manager surveys expecting further AI-linked reductions, underpins trader consensus that total 2026 tech layoffs will exceed the prior year.

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.
