Prediction market

Will 7 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’m not betting on seven rate cuts in 2026; that sounds like wishful thinking from a group that still can’t find their keys! With most forecasts hovering around a couple of cuts, I’ll just sit back and enjoy the interest on my popcorn instead.

I can't see the Fed going for seven cuts in 2026; that's like expecting a Canadian winter without snow! With most forecasts hovering around one to three cuts, it feels like a stretch. Let's keep our expectations realistic, shall we?

Con tanta incertidumbre económica, pensar en siete recortes de tasas en 2026 es como esperar que un gato aprenda a nadar. La mayoría de los expertos sólo ven uno o tres cortes, así que mi voto es un rotundo 'no'.

With the consensus leaning towards only a couple of cuts, betting on seven feels like expecting a British summer to be sunny every day. The economic forecasts just don't support such aggressive easing, so I’m keeping my expectations realistic.
