Context
This market asks whether the artificial intelligence industry will experience a formal downturn by June 30, 2027. According to the rules, the market resolves to "Yes" if at least three specific industry stress events—such as steep stock declines for Nvidia or major hardware suppliers, bankruptcies or acquisitions of key AI firms, or a sharp drop in H100 rental prices—occur within a 90-day window.
Financial markets recently experienced a severe sell-off, with the Nasdaq seeing one of its worst days in months as tech and chip stocks plunged following political shifts and growing investor fears of an AI slowdown. Wall Street reportedly lost trillions in market value as major AI hardware suppliers and chip stocks suffered significant declines.
Commentators and analysts have highlighted warnings from prominent figures about the viability of current tech valuations, with some predicting potential corrections before the end of 2026. The criteria for resolution heavily depend on specific market thresholds, including whether key indices and major suppliers drop 50 percent from their all-time highs.

How this market resolves (Polymarket rules)
This market will resolve to "Yes" if the AI industry experiences an industry downturn by the specified date, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". For the purposes of this market, the AI industry will be considered to have experienced an industry downturn once at least three of the following events have occurred within 90 days of this market's specified timeframe: - NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA) closing stock price is down 50% from its all-time high. - iShares PHLX Semiconductor ETF (SOXX) closing stock price is down 40% from its all-time high. - OpenAI, Inc. or Anthropic PBC declares bankruptcy. - OpenAI, Inc. is acquired. - H100 rental price falls to $1.00 or lower for five consecutive days, as shown on the SiliconData Silicon Index at: https://www.silicondata.com/products/silicon-index. - Major AI Hardware Supplier Collapse: Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (TSM), ASML Holding N.V. (ASML), Broadcom Inc. (AVGO), Arista Networks, Inc. (ANET), or Super Micro Computer, Inc. (SMCI), closing stock price is down 50% from its all-time high. This market may resolve immediately once three conditions have been met within 90 days of the specified timeframe. For clarity, ‘within 90 days of this market’s specified timeframe’ means that three qualifying events must occur within a single 90-day window that ends no later than the market’s final resolution deadline. For example, with a December 31, 2026 deadline, if Event A occurs on January 10, Event B on February 5, and Event C on March 3 of 2026, this would qualify because all three fall within one 90-day span. By contrast, if Event A occurs on January 10, Event B on April 20, and Event C on November 1 of 2026, they would not qualify because they do not occur within the same 90-day window. This market will not resolve to "Yes" until three conditions have been met, regardless of reporting of an industry downturn or similar claims. The primary resolution source will be official information from the respective companies and listing exchanges; however, a consensus of credible reporting will also be used.
