Prediction market

Will 12 or more Fed rate cuts happen in 2026?

Open Ends Dec 31, 2026
View this bet on Polymarket

Rules: This market will resolve according to the exact amount of cuts of 25 basis points in 2026 by the Fed (including any cuts made during the December meeting). Emergency rate cuts outside of scheduled FOMC meetings will also count toward the total number of cuts in 2026. This market will remain open until December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, to account for any such emergency actions. For example, if the Fed cuts rates by 50 bps after a meeting, it would be considered 2 cuts (of 25 bps each). This market will resolve early to "No" if the specified number of cuts becomes impossible — i.e., if more cuts have already occurred than the strike in question. Note that cuts between 1–24 bps (inclusive) will also be considered 1 rate cut. The resolution source for this market will be FOMC statements after meetings scheduled in 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.

I can't see the Fed pulling the trigger on 12 cuts in 2026. With forecasts barely scraping one or two, it feels like betting on a unicorn at this point. Let’s save the confetti for when the market actually throws a party!

With all the chatter about just one or two cuts in 2026, 12 seems as likely as finding a unicorn in the City of London. My finance background tells me the Fed is more about steady than wild, so I had to go with 'No' on this one.

With the Fed's recent forecasts barely hinting at one or two cuts, I’d say expecting 12 is like hoping for a unicorn in a tech startup. My inner retail investor is keeping it real—let's not get too carried away!
