This market will resolve to "Yes" if the Trump Administration formally creates (e.g., by signing federal legislation or performing executive action) a tariff dividend/rebate by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". Any bill signed into law or executive action taken within this market's time frame will qualify, regardless of when the law or action goes into effect. A qualifying payment of any amount distributed to any segment of individual US taxpayers will qualify as long as it is clearly attributed primarily to tariff revenue rather than a routine tax refund or credit. The resolution source will be a consensus of credible reporting.Trump’s repeated proposals for tariff-funded dividends, including a $2,000 payment floated in late 2025 and a new $5,000 “Trump Dividend” announced in September 2026 conditional on Republican midterm gains, have not produced enacted legislation or distributions. The February 2026 Supreme Court ruling invalidating certain tariffs triggered over $100 billion in refunds to importers, sharply reducing net revenue available. Annual collections remain in the low hundreds of billions while even targeted payouts would require hundreds of billions more, necessitating congressional appropriations or new legal authority that has not advanced. These fiscal, procedural, and timing constraints—midterms occur in November—underpin trader expectations that no such dividend will be created by the December 31, 2026 resolution date.
