About this market
No trades have been recorded on this market yet, so there is no market price for any outcome.
Trading closes on Dec 1, 2026. The result is confirmed by Bureau of Labor Statistics.
The underlying event specification is the seasonally adjusted number of layoffs and discharges for the specified industry or region during the time period for the contract as reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics in the Job Openings and Labor Turnover report.
Rules and timeline
Each outcome is its own contract. A Yes contract pays $1 if its outcome happens and $0 if not; a No contract pays the reverse. Because the contracts trade separately, their chances don't have to add up to 100%.
