Trader consensus on Polymarket prices an 78% implied probability of no Federal Reserve rate change at the July 29-30, 2026 FOMC meeting, driven primarily by March 2026 CPI data released April 10 showing a hotter-than-expected 0.9% monthly rise and 3.3% annual inflation—up sharply from February's 2.4%—amid surging energy costs. Resilient labor markets, with March nonfarm payrolls adding 178,000 jobs and unemployment steady at 4.3%, further diminished cut expectations despite the Fed's March 17-18 hold at the 3.50%-3.75% target range and dot-plot signaling one reduction sometime in 2026. Hike odds remain negligible (<3%) as Chair Powell deemed policy borderline restrictive. Upcoming April CPI and May FOMC could shift the path.

This market will resolve to the amount of basis points the upper bound of the target federal funds rate is changed by versus the level it was prior to the Federal Reserve's July 2026 meeting.
If the target federal funds rate is changed to a level not expressed in the displayed options, the change will be rounded up to the nearest 25 and will resolve to the relevant bracket. (e.g. if there's a cut/increase of 12.5 bps it will be considered to be 25 bps)
The resolution source for this market is the FOMC’s statement after its meeting scheduled for July 28-29, 2026 according to the official calendar: https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/fomccalendars.htm.
The level and change of the target federal funds rate is also published at the official website of the Federal Reserve at https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/openmarket.htm.
This market may resolve as soon as the FOMC’s statement for their July meeting with relevant data is issued. If no statement is released by the end date of the next scheduled meeting, this market will resolve to the "No change" bracket.
