Polymarket · x · 2026-08-08
Following reports of enterprises scaling back AI agent deployments, Polymarket currently prices the probability of an AI industry downturn by the end of 2026 at 15%.
The market's resolution criteria are strict, requiring at least three major events within a 90-day window: a 50% drop in NVDA stock from its peak, a 40% drop in SOXX, OpenAI bankruptcy or acquisition, H100 rental prices falling to $1.00 or lower, or a 50% decline in major hardware suppliers like TSMC or ASML.
