This market asks whether the Federal Reserve will keep the upper bound of its target rate unchanged at the March 17-18, 2026 and April 28-29 meetings, then lower it at the June 16-17 meeting. Because the Fed’s meeting-by-meeting path drives borrowing costs, bond pricing, and broader policy expectations, the exact sequence matters even when each individual decision is small.
The question is specifically about the next three regular FOMC decisions: March 17-18, 2026; April 28-29, 2026; and June 16-17, 2026. For this market to resolve “Yes,” the Fed must deliver a pause at the first meeting, another pause at the second, and then a qualifying cut at the third, using the upper bound of the target federal funds rate as defined in the market rules. If the Fed does anything else — including a hike at any point — the market resolves to “Other” rather than “Yes.”
The uncertainty here is not just whether the Fed will be easing by June, but whether it will wait through two consecutive meetings before doing so. That creates a narrow, sequence-based question tied to the Fed’s official statement language and the published target range after each meeting. Readers care because the timing of the first cut can signal how policymakers view inflation, growth, and financial conditions over the spring.
The biggest price moves usually come from developments that change expectations for the March, April, or June FOMC statements, especially inflation data, labor market reports, and any official Fed communication that shifts the likely timing of a cut. Because the contract depends on the exact sequence of three meetings, even a change in expectations for just one meeting can matter a lot. A market move can also follow the release of the FOMC statement itself, since the resolution is based on the Fed’s published target range after each meeting.

View marketThe current market price implies roughly a 1% 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 source of truth is the FOMC statement after each of the three scheduled meetings, with the Federal Reserve’s meeting calendar used to confirm the dates. Readers should check the upper bound of the target federal funds rate before and after each meeting, because the market treats a cut, pause, or hike based on that upper bound. Emergency cuts outside the scheduled meetings do not count, and any combination other than pause-pause-cut resolves to “Other,” so the exact wording and the meeting-by-meeting rate levels are what matter most.

This market is currently listed with an end date of Jun 17, 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 rate. The decisions on the target federal funds rate are made by the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meetings. This market will resolve according to the decisions made by the next three Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meetings: March 17-18, 2026; April 28-29; and June 16-17. A qualifying cut occurs when the new upper bound of the target federal funds rate is lower compared to the level it was prior to the respective meeting. A qualifying hike occurs when the new upper bound of the target federal funds rate is higher compared to the level it was prior to the respective meeting. A qualifying pause occurs when the new upper bound of the target federal funds rate is equal to the level it was prior to the respective meeting. If the Fed publishes a different combination than any listed, this market will resolve to "Other". Any rate hike will be encompassed by "Other". Emergency rate cuts outside the regularly scheduled meetings will not be considered. The resolution source for this market is the FOMC’s statement after its meetings: 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: https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/openmarket.htm
