Fed decreases interest rates by 25 bps after January 2026 meeting?

Completed Ended Jan 28, 2026
View this bet on Polymarket

Rules: 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 fund 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 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 January 27 - 28, 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 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.

No veo un recorte de tasas en el horizonte. La inflación sigue siendo un monstruo de mil cabezas y la economía tiene señales mixtas; es como tratar de adivinar qué va a hacer el clima en primavera. Prefiero quedarme con mi voto 'no' y no arriesgarme a perder en este juego de adivinanzas.

I don't foresee a rate cut after the January meeting; the Fed seems cautious with inflation still hanging around like an uninvited guest. As a retail investor, I’m all for lower rates, but I think the committee will stick to their guns for now.
