The Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) is a benchmark interest rate used in financial markets, reflecting the average cost of borrowing cash overnight collateralized by U.S. Treasury securities. Predicting SOFR for a specific future date involves analyzing economic indicators, monetary policy decisions, and market expectations. These markets allow participants to bet on whether the rate will fall within certain precise ranges or exceed specific thresholds by a set date.
The event resolves based on the initially reported Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) for August 28, 2026, drawn from the “Secured Overnight Financing Rate Data” table under the “Rate (%)” column. All markets share this single underlying data point, and later revisions of the reported SOFR are explicitly excluded from consideration. Each market has a distinct resolution criterion: one resolves if the rate is at most 3.60%, six resolve if the rate matches exactly 3.61% through 3.65% (each covering a single precise value), and the final market resolves if the rate is at least 3.66%. The outcome of any given market depends solely on whether the reported SOFR meets its specific condition, with no market affecting the resolution of another. All markets conclude based solely on the original publication date’s value, ensuring consistency across all outcomes regardless of subsequent data adjustments.
Compared to traditional analyst forecasts, prediction market odds often reflect a broader set of expectations and risk assessments from active traders. While analysts may publish mean estimates or ranges, this market condenses crowd wisdom into a probability distribution that can diverge based on real-time sentiment, liquidity conditions, and emerging macro data. Monitoring shifts in this market can reveal where trading sentiment differs from published expert views.
This market resolves around Sep 7, 2026, with the outcome confirmed once the event is verifiable from credible public reporting. The final SOFR rate for August 28, 2026, will be determined by official data releases from authoritative monetary sources, and the market will close based on that verified figure.
Key signals that could shift this market include major Federal Reserve policy decisions, unexpected changes in U.S. Treasury auction results, shifts in global risk sentiment affecting dollar funding costs, and releases of U.S. economic indicators such as CPI or GDP growth. Any event that influences short-term interest rate expectations—whether through monetary policy surprises, fiscal announcements, or geopolitical developments—may cause rapid repricing in this market as traders adjust their forecasts.
