**AI-driven restructuring continues to drive elevated tech layoffs in 2026, with trackers reporting 129,000–172,000+ cuts year-to-date across dozens of firms.** Major players including Oracle, Meta, Amazon, Microsoft, Intel, and Dell have announced large rounds explicitly tied to automation, efficiency gains, and reallocating resources toward AI infrastructure and model development. The pace exceeds 2025 levels, with AI cited as the leading reason in outplacement data for multiple months. Profitable companies are trimming corporate and middle-management layers to fund billions in capital spending on data centers and capabilities. While sustained economic strength or faster AI job creation in new roles could moderate totals, current momentum and repeated announcements support trader consensus that full-year 2026 layoffs will finish higher than the prior year.

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.
