About This Market

This market asks what the U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) year‑over‑year change will be for April 2026. Outcomes inform traders about expected inflation momentum, which impacts interest-rate expectations, financial markets, and policy discussions.

CPI year‑over‑year compares the price level in April 2026 to April 2025 as reported by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). Recent years have featured swings in energy, shelter, and supply‑chain factors that influenced headline inflation; participants will be weighing those dynamics plus recent labor market and policy signals when forming views for April 2026. The market provides a way to aggregate diverse information and real‑time reactions to new data between now and the BLS release.

Market prices aggregate participant expectations about the BLS‑reported CPI outcome and reflect how consensus shifts as new information arrives. Read prices as the market’s collective view of which outcome range the April 2026 CPI reading will fall into, and consult the contract rules for settlement mapping and timing.
