These markets track potential movements in the 5-year U.S. Treasury yield by setting different threshold levels for a specific future date. Each market evaluates whether the yield surpasses a particular benchmark, offering varied perspectives on future interest rate expectations. The outcomes reflect diverse forecasts for economic conditions and monetary policy impacts.
All markets resolve based on whether the par yield for the 5Y U.S. Treasury exceeds a specified threshold on August 21, 2026. Each market has a unique threshold, ranging incrementally from 4.15% to 4.43%. If the yield on that date is above the respective threshold, the market resolves to Yes; otherwise, it resolves to No. Expiration occurs at the sooner of two times: either the first 7:00 PM ET following the official data release for August 21, 2026, or one week after August 21, 2026. All markets share this uniform expiration rule, ensuring consistency across differing yield level assessments.
This market resolves around Aug 21, 2026, with the outcome confirmed once the event is verifiable from credible public reporting. The final yield level will be determined by official data releases and widely accepted financial sources, ensuring an objective and transparent resolution process for all participants on Kalshi.
Key events that could shift this market include Federal Reserve policy announcements, major economic data releases such as inflation or employment reports, and unexpected geopolitical developments. Shifts in investor sentiment or major changes in global risk appetite may also cause rapid repricing as traders adjust their expectations ahead of the Aug 21, 2026 settlement date.
