The unemployment rate is defined as the seasonally adjusted unemployment rate (total unemployed as a percent of the civilian labor force, denoted as U-3) reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics in the Employment Situation release. The inflation rate is defined as the 12-month percent change in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U), before seasonal adjustment, as reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics in the Consumer Price Index release. This market will resolve according to the unemployment rate and the inflation rate published for December 2026. If either the December 2026 inflation rate or the December 2026 unemployment rate is not published by January 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve based on the most recently published available value of the rate for a month prior to December 2026. This market will resolve to “Soft Landing (Unemployment <5.0%, Inflation <3.5%)” if the unemployment rate is less than 5.0% and the inflation rate is less than 3.5%. This market will resolve to “Stagflation (Unemployment ≥5.0%, Inflation ≥3.5%)” if the unemployment rate is greater than or equal to 5.0% and the inflation rate is greater than or equal to 3.5%. This market will resolve to “Overheating (Unemployment <5.0%, Inflation ≥3.5%)” if the unemployment rate is less than 5.0% and the inflation rate is greater than or equal to 3.5%. This market will resolve to “Slack (Unemployment ≥5.0%, Inflation <3.5%)” if the unemployment rate is greater than or equal to 5.0% and the inflation rate is less than 3.5%. The resolution source for this market will be the Bureau of Labor Statistics, specifically its Employment Situation and Consumer Price Index releases.Recent U.S. data show unemployment at 4.1% in July 2026 and headline CPI at 3.4% year-over-year, keeping the labor market tight while inflation hovers near the 3.5% threshold. Trader consensus for a soft landing at year-end reflects this combination of sub-5% unemployment and cooling price pressures, reinforced by Federal Reserve projections and recent jobs reports indicating modest softening rather than sharp deterioration. Overheating retains substantial implied probability due to persistent core inflation readings, potential tariff effects, and risks that energy or shelter components could reaccelerate before December. Stagflation and slack scenarios remain marginal as forecasts from the CBO and professional surveys point to contained unemployment near 4.3-4.6% alongside gradual disinflation. Key near-term catalysts include the August CPI release and September FOMC meeting, which could shift market-implied odds on the inflation path.
