Recent IMF projections for 2026 global GDP growth were downgraded to 3.1 percent in the April World Economic Outlook from 3.3 percent in January, citing a limited Middle East conflict that is lifting headline inflation and weighing on emerging-market demand while advanced-economy expansion holds near 1.8 percent. These forecasts, alongside World Bank and OECD estimates clustered between 2.6 percent and 2.9 percent, align with Polymarket’s tight distribution, where the ≤2.9 percent and 3.0 percent outcomes command the highest implied probabilities amid offsetting factors such as persistent tariff headwinds, elevated oil prices, and resilient technology investment. Traders are pricing in downside risks from geopolitical escalation or fiscal slippage, balanced against potential upside from monetary easing and productivity gains, leaving resolution sensitive to incoming inflation prints and central-bank communications through year-end.

The relevant figure may be found in the table titled “World Economic Outlook Growth Projections” under “Estimate” in the row “World Output” and the column “2026”. Changes in the IMF’s World Economic Outlook reporting format will not disqualify a published figure from counting.
The GDP release will be made available here: https://www.imf.org/en/publications/weo
If no estimate of the 2026 annual percent change in world real GDP is released in a World Economic Outlook Update between the October 2026 and April 2027 editions of the World Economic Outlook, this market will resolve according to the published figure for 2026 annual percent change in World real GDP in the April 2027 edition of the World Economic Outlook. If no such figure is published by April 30, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, another credible resolution source will be chosen.
If multiple World Economic Outlook Updates are released between the October 2026 and April 2027 editions of the World Economic Outlook, this market will resolve based on the first such publication which includes an estimate of the 2026 annual percent change in World GDP. Projections of World GDP, however, will not be considered.
Note: data from the initial release of the referenced GDP report is what will be used to resolve this market. Data may be revised during the following release or as a part of the next estimate's publication, however any revisions to GDP report data made after the initial release will not be considered for this market's resolution.
Note: the resolution source for this market reports annual percent change in world real GDP to one decimal point (e.g. 3.3%). Thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving the market.
