The Interactive Brokers Prediction Market anticipates a number around 75k, as the \u201cYes\u201d contracts with thresholds of 50k and 100k are priced at $0.74 and $0.27, respectively. This indicator is volatile and carries an elevated deviation rate, however, and could surprise, which is why the associated contracts signal a wide range of potential outcomes. Indeed, over and under, the \u201cYeses\u201d at 150k, 90k, 30k and 10k are priced at $0.16, $0.33, $0.84 and $0.90. The monthly Reuters poll of 68 forecasters signals a similar backdrop, as the median stands at 80k amidst minimum and maximum projections of 10k and 140k. I\u2019m well below consensus at 40k, because I believe labor supply constraints will continue to weigh on the result for the rest of the year, and I generally favor the \u201cNos.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1100\" height=\"417\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.interactivebrokers.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/image-57-1100x417.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-252817 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/image-57-1100x417.png 1100w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/image-57-700x265.png 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/image-57-300x114.png 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/image-57-768x291.png 768w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/image-57.png 1446w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1100px; aspect-ratio: 1100\/417;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-unemployment-expected-steady-at-4-2\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Unemployment Expected Steady at 4.2%<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The US unemployment rate is expected to remain steady as slower job growth coincides with weaker participation that serves to neutralize the indicator. Of 67 forecasters in the monthly Reuters poll, the median estimate is for an unchanged 4.2% amidst minimum and maximum projection of 4.1% and 4.3%. The Interactive Brokers Prediction Market is in close alignment, meanwhile, as participants price the \u201cYeses\u201d at 4%, 4.2% and 4.4% at $0.92, $0.49 and $0.04.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1100\" height=\"414\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.interactivebrokers.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/image-56-1100x414.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-252816 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/image-56-1100x414.png 1100w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/image-56-700x264.png 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/image-56-300x113.png 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/image-56-768x289.png 768w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/image-56-1536x578.png 1536w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/image-56-2048x771.png 2048w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1100px; aspect-ratio: 1100\/414;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-canada-unemployment-no-at-6-5\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Canada Unemployment \u201cNo\u201d at 6.5%<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Canadian Jobs Report is also scheduled for tomorrow and in my view participants in the Interactive Brokers Prediction Market are underestimating the potential for a slight decline. The consensus estimate expects a steady unemployment number of 6.5%, but a modest decrease to 6.4% is possible because this indicator carries an elevated deviation rate and can surprise significantly in either direction. Despite the 6.4% level not being reached since July 2024, the \u201cNo\u201d at that threshold is going for just $0.05. This price is undervalued, in my opinion, because a meager drop in the gauge to 6.4% or below would return $1.00 back to investors per contract; making the instrument simply too cheap. Furthermore, of the 15 forecasters surveyed in the monthly Reuters poll, the minimum projection is 6.4%, indicating that other economists, like I, see a path to this lighter figure. Over, meanwhile, the \u201cNos\u201d at 6.6% and 6.8% are at $0.93 and $0.96.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1100\" height=\"413\"
