Trader consensus on Polymarket reflects an 88.5% implied probability for tech layoffs rising in 2026 versus 2025, driven by Q1 data showing nearly 80,000 job cuts—over 40% year-over-year increase and surpassing prior years' pace—with almost half attributed to AI automation and efficiency restructuring at firms like Meta, Microsoft, and Oracle. March marked the worst month since 2024, with 38,000-45,000 losses amid hiring freezes and AI infrastructure investments redirecting capital from headcount. Surveys indicate 55-60% of tech leaders anticipate further reductions, fueled by economic caution and generative AI capabilities displacing routine roles. Upcoming Q2 earnings from Big Tech could confirm or accelerate the trend, though hiring rebounds in AI-specialized niches offer counterbalance.

This market will resolve to "Down" if there are more layoffs in the information sector in 2025 than in 2026.
This market will resolve to 50-50 if the totals are the same in 2025 and 2026.
If not all relevant data points are published by June 30, 2027, ET, data published up until this point will be used to determine the 2026 total.
Revisions to previous data points after all relevant data points have been released will not be considered.
This market's resolution source will be the Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED), specifically the monthly 'Layoffs and Discharges: Information' within the Job Openings and Labor Turnover (Not Seasonally Adjusted) (https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/JTU5100LDL).
Changes in the methodology by which the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports data will have no bearing on the resolution of this market.
The resolution source reports the values as whole numbers (thousands of persons). Thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving the market.
