This market will resolve according to the first change made to the People’s Bank of China (PBoC) 7-day reverse repo rate by April 30, 2026, 11:59 PM China Standard Time (CST). An “increase” refers to any change in the 7-day reverse repo rate to a level higher than the most recent effective 7-day reverse repo rate. A “decrease” refers to any change in the 7-day reverse repo rate to a level lower than the most recent effective 7-day reverse repo rate. If the People’s Bank of China does not change the 7-day reverse repo rate by April 30, 2026, 11:59 PM China Standard Time, this market will resolve to the “No Change” bracket. An official announcement of a change to the PBoC 7-day Reverse Repo Rate within this market’s timeframe will be sufficient to resolve this market, regardless of when the rate change is stated to go into effect. The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the People’s Bank of China, including PBoC Open Market Operations announcements (https://www.pbc.gov.cn/en/3688110/3688181/index.html); however, a consensus of credible reporting on a change to the 7-day reverse repo rate may also be used.The People's Bank of China held its benchmark one-year loan prime rate at 3.0% and five-year LPR at 3.5% unchanged on April 20, 2026—the 11th consecutive month without adjustment—aligning with trader consensus amid resilient first-quarter GDP growth that diminished easing pressures. The PBOC also maintained its 7-day reverse repo rate steady at 1.4% through daily open market operations throughout April, as confirmed by official announcements. Governor Pan Gongsheng reiterated a "moderately loose" monetary policy stance, supporting the skin-in-the-game certainty of no rate change. While exceeding 90% probability leaves scant room for shifts, a surprise emergency adjustment before April 30—such as via medium-term lending facility operations or reserve requirement cuts—could theoretically challenge resolution, though economic stability renders this improbable.
