Polymarket traders' near-even split—51.5% implied probability for no change versus 49% for a decrease in the Bank of Israel's May policy rate—reflects competing pressures on the 4.00% benchmark amid moderating inflation and persistent geopolitical risks. March 2026 CPI rose 0.4% month-over-month for a 1.9% annual rate, undershooting forecasts and staying within the 1-3% target, bolstering cut expectations after two prior reductions to 4%. Yet, the Monetary Committee's March 30 hold cited war uncertainties with Iran, slashed 2026 GDP growth forecasts to 3.8%, and fiscal budget concerns as reasons for caution. Key swing factors ahead of the late-May decision include April CPI data and any escalation in hostilities, with low unemployment at 2.7% supporting resilience.
