This market asks whether the Federal Reserve will raise the upper bound of its target federal funds range by 50 basis points or more after the July 2026 FOMC meeting. It is worth watching because a move that large would be a notable shift in U.S. monetary policy and would usually signal that the Fed sees inflation, growth, or financial conditions as changing quickly.
The event in question is the Federal Open Market Committee’s July 28-29, 2026 meeting. The market resolves based on how much the Fed changes the upper bound of the target federal funds range compared with the level before that meeting, using the FOMC’s post-meeting statement as the main source. If the new rate is set at a level not shown in the market’s brackets, the change is rounded up to the nearest 25 basis points for resolution purposes.
The key uncertainty is whether the Fed will make a large upward adjustment in a single meeting, which is uncommon compared with smaller 25-basis-point moves. Readers care because the federal funds rate helps shape borrowing costs across the economy, from mortgages and business loans to short-term funding markets, so a 50+ basis-point increase would matter well beyond the Fed itself. The market is pricing disagreement about how strong the economic backdrop will be by late July 2026 and whether officials will feel pressure to move more aggressively than usual.
The biggest price movers would be changes in expectations for inflation, labor-market strength, and financial stability ahead of the July meeting, especially if Fed officials or official data point toward a more forceful response. A shift in the market’s view of whether the FOMC is leaning toward a larger-than-normal hike, or whether it is more likely to hold steady or move in smaller steps, would also matter. Because the market resolves off the FOMC statement, wording that clearly signals a 50+ basis-point increase would be decisive.

View marketThe current market price implies roughly a 0% 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.
Before resolution, readers should check the official FOMC calendar and the July 28-29, 2026 post-meeting statement, since that is the source of truth for this market. The important detail is the change in the upper bound of the target federal funds range relative to the level before the meeting, not other policy tools or later commentary. One ambiguity to watch is the rounding rule: if the Fed chooses a move that does not land exactly on a displayed bracket, the market applies the stated rounding method to determine the result.

This market is currently listed with an end date of Jul 29, 2026. Market timelines can change if the underlying event is postponed, rescheduled, or resolved early.
The FED interest rates are defined in this market by the upper bound of the target federal funds range. The decisions on the target federal funds range are made by the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meetings. This market will resolve to the amount of basis points the upper bound of the target federal funds rate is changed by versus the level it was prior to the Federal Reserve's July 2026 meeting. If the target federal funds rate is changed to a level not expressed in the displayed options, the change will be rounded up to the nearest 25 and will resolve to the relevant bracket. (e.g. if there's a cut/increase of 12.5 bps it will be considered to be 25 bps) The resolution source for this market is the FOMC’s statement after its meeting scheduled for July 28-29, 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. This market may resolve as soon as the FOMC’s statement for their July meeting with relevant data is issued. If no statement is released by the end date of the next scheduled meeting, this market will resolve to the "No change" bracket.
