This market will resolve to "Yes" if any US bank fails between this market's creation and the listed date 11:59 PM ET (according to the FDIC's "Failed Bank List"). Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No." For this market to resolve to "Yes", the bank's closing date as listed by the FDIC must be within this market's above-specified timeframe. If there is a potential bank failure within this market's timeframe and the FDIC "Failed Bank List" has not been updated yet, this market may remain open to allow for the list to be updated. The primary resolution source for this market will be the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), specifically the "Failed Bank List" available here: https://www.fdic.gov/resources/resolutions/bank-failures/failed-bank-list/; however, other official statements from the FDIC and government entities will suffice.Trader consensus on Polymarket prices a 73% implied probability against a US bank failure by June 30, reflecting banking sector resilience amid just one small institution—Metropolitan Capital Bank & Trust—failing on January 30 at a modest $19.7 million cost to the FDIC Deposit Insurance Fund. No subsequent failures have materialized in the ensuing 10 weeks, underscoring robust capital positions and regulatory scrutiny following Federal Reserve's February 2026 stress test scenarios. Persistent commercial real estate loan pressures, with $875 billion maturing soon and regional bank exposure, represent key risks, yet absence of contagion signals stability. Watch for June stress test results and Q2 earnings for potential shifts in sentiment.
