Intro

This market tracks whether the core Consumer Price Index will record a month-over-month change of exactly 0.1% in May 2026, a key inflation gauge that excludes volatile food and energy components. On Kalshi, the probability of a 0.1% reading stands at 48.0%, with a 29.0% probability assigned to other outcomes within the expected range of -0.2% to +0.5%. Resolution will be determined by the official CPI data release, with the betting period closing on June 10, 2026, when the May inflation figures become available.

Frequently asked questions

The market resolves on Jun 10, 2026, shortly after the Bureau of Labor Statistics releases the official core CPI month-over-month figure for May 2026. The outcome is determined by the actual published data from the BLS, which measures the change in prices paid by consumers for goods and services, excluding volatile food and energy components. Resolution occurs once the government report is official and verified, settling all positions based on which outcome bracket or threshold the actual reading falls into.

Key catalysts include Federal Reserve policy decisions and forward guidance on interest rates, which influence inflation expectations and consumer spending. Employment reports, wage growth data, and producer price indices in the months leading up to May provide early signals of demand and cost pressures. Commodity price movements, supply chain disruptions, and geopolitical events can shift inflation trajectories. Additionally, retail sales, housing starts, and consumer confidence reports help traders refine their forecasts. Any surprise in these indicators typically triggers sharp repricing of the market odds as traders update their probability estimates.
