These markets assess Target's credit card spend performance for September 2026, using a year-over-year index compiled by Carbon Arc. The index reflects changes in spending compared to the same month in the previous year, with values above 100 indicating growth. Each market has a different threshold, determining whether spending exceeded specific growth levels.
All markets resolve based on the Carbon Arc Target Credit Card Spend index for September 2026, comparing it to the same month in the prior year. The index, derived from aggregated U.S. credit and debit card transactions, measures year-over-year change, with 100 representing equal spending to the previous year. Values above 100 signify growth, while values below 100 indicate a decline. Each market has a unique threshold (e.g., above 93, above 95, etc.), and all resolve based on the first value reported by Carbon Arc for September 2026. Any corrections or revisions made after the market settlement date will not affect the outcome. Kalshi explicitly states it is not affiliated with or connected to Target or Carbon Arc, and all trademarks remain the property of their respective owners.

This market resolves around Oct 14, 2026, with the outcome confirmed once the event is verifiable from credible public reporting. The final determination will rely on official financial disclosures and verified data sources, ensuring an objective resolution aligned with publicly available results.
Several signals could shift this market before Oct 14, 2026. Key corporate announcements from Target, such as quarterly earnings or changes to credit card user incentives, will directly affect expectations.
