Polymarket priced a 25 bps increase in Fed interest rates after the October 2026 meeting at 7.5%, up 2.0 percentage points over the last 24 hours, in the Oct 26, 2026 · 11:54 AM ET snapshot. The contract had recorded $16.1M in traded volume.
The move increased the market-implied likelihood of a hike, while leaving it a low-probability outcome. The supplied news-search summary identified no significant new platform headline in the preceding 30 minutes, offering no fresh reported catalyst for the repricing.
A separate Polymarket contract asking whether Fed interest rates would remain unchanged after the October 2026 meeting had $22.8M in traded volume, according to predictionbubbles.net. At its latest refresh, that was the most-traded finance market on the site’s board. The supplied material did not give its probability.
Those volume figures measure total trading, not activity confined to the latest day. PredictionBubbles separately reports probability changes over 24 hours, so the $16.1M figure should not be read as the amount traded during the hike contract’s 2.0-point rise.
According to predictionbubbles.net, its finance board covers 198 open markets: 23 from Kalshi and 175 from Polymarket. Its data refreshes every 15 minutes, although trading on the underlying venues is continuous.
The site also cautions that related contracts across venues can differ in wording, resolution rules and deadlines. Comparisons therefore require more than matching a topic or a displayed probability.
The Kalshi contract on whether Mike Brown will be out before Oct 25, 2027 was priced at 24.0%, down 5.0 probability points, with $10K traded in the update published Oct 26, 2026 at 11:54 AM ET.
According to PredictionBubbles, the Brown departure contract appeared among declining sports markets on its movers board, rather than as the board’s leading move. The supplied summary also reports zero hits, but does not define that measure.
PredictionBubbles ranks contracts by their probability-point change over 24 hours, not their relative percentage change. Its underlying venue snapshot was taken on 26 Oct 2026 at 15:45 UTC, and the board refreshes every 15 minutes using prices from Kalshi and Polymarket.
The board covers 1,998 markets with lifespans longer than 14 days. Only open contracts with a valid 24-hour comparison qualify for its rankings; trading volume and liquidity provide context but do not determine placement.
The supplied material does not identify a news event behind Brown’s decline or provide the contract’s detailed settlement criteria. It therefore establishes a lower market price for the departure outcome, not a verified change in Brown’s circumstances.
The $10K traded figure adds activity context, but the material supplies no order-book depth for this contract. According to PredictionBubbles, price movement and trading activity are separate measures: a probability shift alone does not establish how broadly supported a repricing is.
