CUTS — Fed Path Oracle

How many Fed moves the market expects over the next year — and where the Kalshi signal and the curve disagree.

A real-time read on the expected Fed path. Updating continuously from Kalshi’s prediction markets and the Treasury curve, CUTS reads both to answer a simple question: how many cuts does the market expect — and where does the Kalshi signal disagree with the curve?

Kalshi vs curve, last 6 months.

How many rate moves the market expects: the Kalshi signal versus the bond market. When they pull apart, that disagreement is the tradeable signal.

Index methodology

Two paths, one disagreement.

01

The Kalshi signal

Kalshi's rate-cut-count market shows how many cuts traders expect this year. We turn that into Kalshi's expected number of rate moves.

02

The bond market

The 1-year Treasury yield implies where the bond market expects rates to average over the year — which we convert into an expected year-end rate and number of moves.

03

The disagreement

CME FedWatch shows the bond-market path for free. KOPS adds one continuous number and the gap between the Kalshi signal and the bond market — where sentiment and institutional positioning disagree.

Why now

Two languages, one number.

How many times the Fed cuts this year is the trade behind every other trade — and the answer lives in two places that rarely agree. The futures curve says one thing; the Kalshi signal says another. Most people read one and ignore the other.

So the most-watched path in markets is told in two languages, and the disagreement — often the real signal — goes unmeasured.

CUTS reads both. It prints the Kalshi signal’s expected path and the Treasury-implied path as one continuous number and surfaces the gap between them. When the Kalshi signal and the curve pull apart, that disagreement is the tradeable signal — and we publish it live.
