Kalshi
This market tracks whether U.S. nominal GDP growth will exceed 0.5% during the second quarter of 2026. On Kalshi, the leading outcome—that nominal GDP growth will be above 0.5%—stands at 91.0%. Resolution will be determined by the percent change in U.S. nominal GDP for Q2 2026 rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of a percent according to the Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED) series. Watch for the official GDP release scheduled around July 30, 2026, when the Federal Reserve will publish the preliminary estimate for Q2 2026 nominal growth.
If the percent change in U.S. nominal GDP in Q2 2026, rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of a percent according to the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis’s Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED) series, is above 0.5, then the market resolves to Yes. If the percent change in U.S. nominal GDP in Q2 2026, rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of a percent according to the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis’s Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED) series, is above 1.0, then the market resolves to Yes. If the percent change in U.S. nominal GDP in Q2 2026, rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of a percent according to the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis’s Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED) series, is above 1.5, then the market resolves to Yes. If the percent change in U.S. nominal GDP in Q2 2026, rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of a percent according to the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis’s Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED) series, is above 2.0, then the market resolves to Yes. If the percent change in U.S. nominal GDP in Q2 2026, rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of a percent according to the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis’s Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED) series, is above 2.5, then the market resolves to Yes.
Key drivers of market movement include Federal Reserve policy decisions and interest-rate guidance, which influence both real growth and inflation expectations. Labor market reports—particularly payroll growth and wage trends—signal consumer spending capacity and inflationary pressure. Consumer confidence indices and retail sales data reveal demand strength heading into Q2. Inflation readings (CPI, PCE) matter because nominal GDP combines real growth and price changes; higher inflation boosts nominal figures. Geopolitical shocks, trade policy shifts, or financial-stability concerns could trigger repricing. Additionally, advance GDP estimates from other quarters and forward guidance from policymakers will refine market expectations as Jul 30, 2026 approaches.
