Frequently asked questions

The market resolves on Aug 12, 2026, following the official release of July 2026 core CPI data by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The outcome is determined by the actual month-over-month percentage change in the core Consumer Price Index for that month. Resolution occurs after the data is published and verified, at which point contracts settle according to which outcome bracket or range the reported figure falls into, paying out to holders of the correct outcome.

Key catalysts include Federal Reserve policy decisions and forward guidance on interest rates, which influence inflation expectations and wage-price dynamics. Energy and commodity price movements, supply-chain disruptions, and labor market strength all feed into core inflation momentum. Consumer spending patterns, housing costs, and service-sector pricing power are critical components of core CPI. Unexpected economic data—employment reports, retail sales, producer prices—can shift trader expectations about inflation trajectory. Geopolitical events or trade policy changes may also move markets by altering inflation forecasts heading into July 2026.
