Major tech firms are accelerating workforce reductions in 2026 to fund aggressive AI infrastructure investments and adopt automation that replaces roles, driving the market's 88.5% implied probability for higher layoffs than in 2025. Recent announcements include Meta's 10% cut of roughly 8,000 positions, Oracle's reported elimination of up to 30,000 roles, Intuit's planned 17% reduction of 3,000 workers, and Wix's 20% staff trim, alongside similar moves at Cisco, Dell, and Groupon. These actions align with surveys showing 55% of hiring managers anticipating layoffs, with AI cited as a primary factor, sustaining elevated quarterly totals already exceeding 100,000 in the first months of the year. Traders see these verified restructuring patterns as likely to persist through year-end.

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.
