Major tech firms are accelerating workforce reductions in 2026 through AI-driven restructuring, with over 138,000 tech layoffs recorded so far this year—already exceeding the same period in 2025 by 33 percent according to trackers like Layoffs.fyi and Challenger, Gray & Christmas. Companies including Meta, Amazon, and Coinbase have cited efficiency gains from large language models and automation to flatten management layers and eliminate roles that AI agents can now handle. This trend persists even as overall private-sector cuts decline, pushing trader consensus toward higher annual totals for the tech sector. Key near-term catalysts include additional announcements tied to AI investments and potential regulatory scrutiny on employment impacts.

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.
