Read the rules before reading the headline. Resolution wording decides the outcome, not the news.

See what is changing

This market will resolve to the bracket containing the magnitude of the largest earthquake recorded globally on October 27, 2026, as reported by the USGS Earthquake Catalog. Brackets: Under 5.3 / 5.3 to 5.4 / 5.5 to 5.6 / 5.7 to 5.8 / 5.9 to 6.0 / 6.1 or more. Exactly one bracket resolves "Yes". The observation period is the UTC calendar day: 00:00 UTC to 23:59 UTC on October 27, 2026.

An earthquake is assigned to the day containing its origin time. Magnitude refers to the USGS preferred magnitude value, listed under 'Magnitude' in the format column. If USGS revises a magnitude after initial publication, the revision governs provided it is published before 2:00 PM ET on October 28, 2026. A value first published after that time is not considered.

Read the complete resolution rules

If the reported magnitude carries more than one decimal place, it is rounded to the nearest tenth using standard rounding conventions (0.05 rounds up). Brackets are inclusive of their stated endpoints. If no earthquake data for October 27, 2026 has been published by 2:00 PM ET on October 28, 2026, this market will resolve to the "Under 5.3" bracket.
