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 January 2027 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 January 26-27, 2027 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 January 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.Recent U.S. inflation data and Federal Reserve communications underpin the 61.5% market-implied probability of no change at the January 2027 FOMC meeting. Headline CPI eased to 3.4% year-over-year in July 2026 from 3.5% in June, with core at 2.5%, yet remains well above the 2% target amid resilient growth and prior energy shocks. The Fed has held the federal funds rate at 3.50–3.75% through multiple 2026 pauses, including July’s 9-3 vote with three dissents favoring a 25 basis point hike. This path, alongside a 4.1% unemployment rate, supports trader consensus for steady policy into early 2027 while leaving room for modest tightening if inflation reaccelerates. Key near-term catalysts include the September FOMC and upcoming CPI releases.
