This market will resolve to “Yes” if either of the following conditions is met: 1. The seasonally adjusted annualized percent change in quarterly U.S. real GDP from the previous quarter is less than 0.0 for two consecutive quarters between Q2 2025 and Q4 2026 (inclusive), as reported by the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA). 2. The National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) publicly announces that a recession has occurred in the United States, at any point during 2025 or 2026, with the announcement made by the time the BEA releases the advance estimate for Q4 2026. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". Note that advance estimates will be considered. For example, if upon release, the advance estimate for Q3 2025 was negative, and the Q2 2025's most recent, up-to-date estimate was also negative, this market would resolve to "Yes". If on December 31, 2026 the latest estimate for quarterly GDP in Q3 2025 was negative, this market will stay open until the Advance estimate of Q4 2026 is published, at which point it will resolve to "Yes" if Q4 2026 was negative or if the NBER declares a recession by then. The resolution source will be the official announcements from the NBER and the BEA’s estimate of seasonally adjusted annualized percent change in quarterly US real GDP from previous quarters as released by the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), https://www.bea.gov/data/gdp/gross-domestic-product

"context_description": "Trader consensus on Polymarket prices a 68.5% implied probability against a US recession by end-2026, reflecting resilience in core economic indicators despite headwinds from surging oil prices tied to Middle East tensions. March CPI showed energy inflation at 12.5% year-over-year, prompting brief odds spikes to 40% for recession earlier this month, yet Q4 2025 GDP grew 2.0% and Atlanta Fed's Q1 2026 tracker holds near 2%, with unemployment steady at 4.3%. The March 18 FOMC statement highlighted elevated uncertainty but affirmed healthy growth projections around 2%, aligning with Goldman Sachs' 30% recession risk. Key catalysts ahead include late-April Q1 GDP advance and May nonfarm payrolls, which could sway sentiment if labor softens further.",
