In plain English
Resolves Yes if the seasonally adjusted U-3 unemployment rate for November 2026, in the BLS Employment Situation report due December 4, 2026 at 8:30 AM ET (Table A-15), matches ≤3.8%. Revisions after the first release do not count. Otherwise No.
Watch out
Only the first-release November 2026 U-3 rate, to one decimal, counts. Later revisions are ignored.
Resolution criteria
This market will resolve according to the seasonally adjusted unemployment rate (total unemployed, as a percent of the civilian labor force, official unemployment rate denoted as U-3) reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics in the Employment Situation Report for November 2026. The resolution source for this market is the Monthly Employment Situation Report, published by the BLS every month at https://www.bls.gov/bls/news-release/empsit.htm, specifically the U-3 measure in Table A-15 for the month in question. The relevant data release is scheduled for December 4, 2026, at 8:30 AM ET. This market will resolve as soon as the relevant data is issued. Any revisions to the data after the first release will not count toward this market's resolution. If no data for the specified month is released by the date the next month's data is scheduled to be released, this market will resolve based on data from the last available month. Note: the resolution source for this market reports unemployment to one decimal point. Thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving the market.
