This market asks a very specific question about Federal Reserve policy in 2026: will the Fed deliver exactly one 25-basis-point rate cut over the course of the year? Because the count includes scheduled FOMC meetings and any emergency cuts, it is really about the full year’s path for the federal funds rate, not just the next meeting.
The reference point is the Federal Open Market Committee, or FOMC, the Fed’s policy-setting body. Here, the outcome is determined by the exact number of 25-basis-point cuts the Fed makes during 2026, with smaller cuts of 1 to 24 basis points still counting as one cut and larger cuts counted in 25-basis-point chunks; for example, a 50-basis-point cut counts as two. The market stays open through December 31, 2026, and it can resolve early to No if more than one cut has already happened, making a later Yes impossible.
The uncertainty is about how the Fed will balance inflation, growth, labor-market conditions, and financial stability over a full calendar year. Investors and observers care because rate cuts signal a shift in policy stance and can affect borrowing costs, bond yields, and broader financial conditions, even though this page itself is only tracking the policy decision count. The market is pricing disagreement over whether 2026 will be a one-cut year or something more aggressive, with the answer depending on how economic data and the Fed’s own guidance evolve.
Price moves will usually follow concrete Fed communication: FOMC statements after each scheduled meeting, the published target federal funds rate, and any emergency action outside the regular calendar. A clearer signal that the Fed is preparing to ease once, or that it is holding steady for longer, would shift expectations quickly; so would any rate change that makes the one-cut total impossible or still plausible. The December 2026 meeting matters especially because the market explicitly counts any cut made there.

View marketThe current market price implies roughly a 13% chance for the leading outcome, based on live Polymarket pricing. That number is not a prediction from PredictionNinja and it is not a guarantee; it is the current crowd-priced view of the market and can change quickly when new information appears.
The key source of truth is the Fed’s official FOMC calendar and the statements released after each 2026 meeting, plus the Federal Reserve’s published target-rate pages. Readers should check whether any rate move is described in basis points and how many separate 25-basis-point increments it implies, since the rules count partial cuts as a full cut and split larger moves into multiple cuts. The main ambiguity to watch for is whether an action was scheduled or emergency, and whether the year-end total has already crossed above one, which would make a Yes impossible under the market rules.

This market is currently listed with an end date of Dec 31, 2026. Market timelines can change if the underlying event is postponed, rescheduled, or resolved early.
This market will resolve according to the exact amount of cuts of 25 basis points in 2026 by the Fed (including any cuts made during the December meeting). Emergency rate cuts outside of scheduled FOMC meetings will also count toward the total number of cuts in 2026. This market will remain open until December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, to account for any such emergency actions. For example, if the Fed cuts rates by 50 bps after a meeting, it would be considered 2 cuts (of 25 bps each). This market will resolve early to "No" if the specified number of cuts becomes impossible — i.e., if more cuts have already occurred than the strike in question. Note that cuts between 1–24 bps (inclusive) will also be considered 1 rate cut. The resolution source for this market will be FOMC statements after meetings scheduled in 2026 according to the official calendar: https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/fomccalendars.htm. The level and change of the target federal funds rate is also published at the official website of the Federal Reserve at https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/openmarket.htm.
