S&P price on Mar 2, 2026 at 3pm EST?

Check the Kalshi event page for the market's resolution clause — it will specify the vendor or exchange feed used (for example an index level from a specific data provider or consolidated tape) and that source is what determines the settlement price.

The event lists 3:00 PM Eastern; confirm on the Kalshi market page whether the exchange means standard Eastern Time, Eastern Time accounting for daylight saving, or provides a UTC equivalent; the exchange's resolution rules govern how time zones and DST are applied.

With 400 discrete price outcomes, traders can target narrow S&P ranges or specific cent-level outcomes, but the same liquidity is split across many buckets so individual outcomes may be thinly traded; interpret prices with attention to trade size, recent fills, and overall market depth.

The market close time is listed as TBD; settlement will be based on the specified 3:00 PM Eastern timestamp and the designated price source — check the Kalshi event page for posted trading deadlines and any official notices about finalization timing.

Relevant items include same-day macro releases (employment, inflation, PMI, or other data), any Fed or major central bank communications, earnings or guidance from large index components, and options/futures activity or expirations — consult an economic and corporate calendar for that specific date to see which items are timed near the settlement.
