Trader consensus reflects a 94.8% implied probability that the Supreme Court will rule in favor of President Trump’s authority to fire Federal Trade Commission commissioners without cause in Trump v. Slaughter, driven primarily by signals from the December 8, 2025 oral arguments, where a solid majority of justices expressed support for challenging the FTC Act’s statutory removal protections as violating Article II separation of powers. The Court’s September 22, 2025 shadow docket order granting a stay—allowing Commissioner Rebecca Kelly Slaughter’s removal pending full merits review—reinforced this momentum among traders wagering real money. No notable developments have occurred in the past 30 days, with the October term 2025-2026 case still awaiting decision amid typical end-of-term opinion releases.
