Economy Prediction Markets

0 open markets · settled in USDC on Polygon · no KYC

Macro prediction markets translate the most-watched economic data releases into binary outcomes. Will the next CPI print come in above 3.0%? Will Q3 GDP be revised higher? Will the Fed deliver a 50 bps cut at the next FOMC? Will the US enter a recession by Q4 next year? Each market settles on a specific BLS, BEA, Fed, or other official data release.

Kayxa hosts macro markets covering Fed rate decisions, CPI and PCE inflation prints, nonfarm payrolls, GDP releases, unemployment rate, PMI, trade policy events (tariffs, trade war escalations), and one-off events like government shutdowns or debt-ceiling outcomes. All resolutions use the official statistical release.

These markets are useful for anyone whose work or investments are exposed to macro data — from professional traders to small business owners trying to make rate-sensitive decisions. They aggregate the view of many participants into a single live probability, often updating in real time as a release goes live.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between Kayxa economy markets and CME FedWatch?
CME FedWatch is derived from Fed Funds futures pricing. Kayxa markets are direct binary markets on specific outcomes ("Will the Fed cut 25 bps?"). Both reflect collective probability estimates, but Kayxa markets often move faster on news and can express more granular outcomes (skip vs cut, dovish vs hawkish statements).
How do CPI markets resolve?
Each market specifies the release date and the headline or core CPI threshold ("Will September CPI YoY be above 3.0%?"). Resolution uses the official BLS press release on release morning, typically within minutes of publication.
Can I trade recession odds?
Yes. Markets ask whether the NBER will declare a recession by a target date, or whether GDP will print negative for two consecutive quarters. Resolution sources are the NBER announcement and BEA GDP releases respectively.
