PredictionHero - Resolution Divergence Alerts (RDA)

Divergence Detected

Issue: The event group contains markets resolving on two completely different economic indicators (CPI core vs Consumer Sentiment) across platformsHero tip: Traders must treat these as separate markets resolving on different data sources. Cross-platform hedging requires understanding both CPI and Consumer Sentiment dynamics.

  • Kalshi: 10 markets resolving on changes in the seasonally adjusted Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers: All Items less Food and Energy. Threshold ranges from >0.0% to >1.0% increases
  • Polymarket: 9 markets resolving on University of Michigan Index of Consumer Sentiment levels, with brackets from below 49.0 to at least 64.0
Our PredictionHero Resolution Divergence Alerts (RDA) are there to help users identify potential differences across platforms. They do not replace or supersede the official rules and description of any prediction market. Users are solely responsible for reviewing and understanding the applicable rules and resolution criteria before placing any trade or bet. If you notice a potential inconsistency, discrepancy, or error in an alert, please report it to our team so we can review and improve the accuracy of our data.

Polymarket

This is a market about the University of Michigan Index of Consumer Sentiment (ICS) for August 2026, as reported by the University of Michigan Surveys of Consumers. This market will resolve to the bracket containing the final University of Michigan Index of Consumer Sentiment for August 2026, as reported in the University of Michigan Surveys of Consumers final release. The resolution source for this market will be the University of Michigan Surveys of Consumers final release for August 2026 (https://data.sca.isr.umich.edu/), currently scheduled to be released on August 28, 2026, at 10:00 AM ET. Resolution of this market will take place upon release of the aforementioned data. Note: This market resolves based only on the final results for the specified month; preliminary results will not be considered. Note: University of Michigan Index of Consumer Sentiment is reported to one decimal point (e.g., 44.8). Thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving the market. If the University of Michigan does not release the relevant figures on the scheduled date, this market may remain open up until the scheduled release time of the next Surveys of Consumers report. If the information is not released by that time, this market will resolve according to the figures of the most recent previous month with available data.

Kalshi

The market measures the seasonally adjusted month-over-month change in core Consumer Price Index (All Urban Consumers: All Items less Food and Energy) for August 2026, using the single-decimal value reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Each outcome corresponds to a specific threshold, with resolution to Yes if the reported increase exceeds that threshold. In the event of delays caused by federal government shutdown affecting data reliability, the market's expiration date extends to the sooner of the data release or six months after the shutdown ends.
