HypredictThis market has three possible results: No change, Decrease, or Increase. Exactly one corresponding named outcome resolves to Yes; the other two and the protocol-created fallback resolve to No. It covers the December 2026 Federal Open Market Committee decision concerning the upper bound of the target range for the federal funds rate, scheduled for Dec 9, 19:00 UTC (the "Decision"). The Decision Value is the numeric value of the upper bound of the target range for the federal funds rate announced by Federal Open Market Committee. The Prior Value is the value of that same measure in effect immediately before the Decision. No change resolves to Yes if the Decision Value equals the Prior Value. Decrease resolves to Yes if the Decision Value is lower. Increase resolves to Yes if the Decision Value is higher. If the Decision is rescheduled, the rescheduled decision applies if Federal Open Market Committee publishes it by Jan 27, 19:00 UTC. If the Decision is canceled or postponed without a replacement decision, or no official Decision Value is published by Jan 27, 19:00 UTC, No change resolves to Yes. Policy changes outside the scheduled Decision are ignored except when establishing the Prior Value. If Federal Open Market Committee replaces the upper bound of the target range for the federal funds rate, the closest official successor measure identified by Federal Open Market Committee is used. Resolution uses the initially published decision; later revisions do not change the resolution. Federal Open Market Committee is the primary resolution source; independent reputable reporting may be used if it has not published the relevant decision. No change resolves to Yes under the deadline rule above only if neither Federal Open Market Committee nor independent reputable reporting establishes a Decision Value by Jan 27, 19:00 UTC.
