Leader: 0.1-0.3% at 54% · Polymarket 54% · 6 contracts · $0 volume · medium confidence

Tracks the leading outcome in a winner-take-all prediction market set with 6 outcomes.

Why this matters:
This probability reflects market expectations that German GDP will grow at least 1.3% in the second quarter of 2026. Markets currently expect slower growth instead, with the leading outcome pricing in stagnation or contraction (≤0.0%). Germany's growth trajectory depends on whether consumer spending and industrial production accelerate from recent levels, or continue to face headwinds from higher energy costs and weak external demand. The decisive data point will be the official GDP estimate for Q2 2026, released by Destatis (Germany's statistics office) in mid-August 2026. This figures into broader European economic conditions and potential ECB policy responses, making the outcome relevant for eurozone forecasts.

Key factors:
- Q1 2026 German GDP growth baseline: actual reported growth rate will establish whether momentum exists for 1.3%+ achievement in Q2
- Energy import prices and manufacturing PMI through June 2026: sustained decline or spike would materially shift growth expectations in either direction
- Consumer confidence indices and retail sales data: visible weakness here would reduce probability of 1.3%+ threshold significantly
- Destatis preliminary vs. final GDP releases: revisions between August and September 2026 could alter contract settlement amounts if outcomes are on margins
- Eurozone-wide demand indicators: external demand conditions in France, Italy, and broader EU affect German export-dependent sectors disproportionately

## Methodology

SimpleFunctions aggregates live YES-side prices from Kalshi and Polymarket contracts bound to this question. For binary topics the headline is the liquidity-weighted mid-price (weight = log(1 + 24h volume) × freshness, where freshness is 1.0 if updated <24h, 0.7 if <7d, 0.4 otherwise). For multi-outcome (winner-take-all) topics the headline is the current leader's price — disjoint outcomes are never arithmetically averaged. Snapshots refresh every 5 minutes during market hours.

## SF Signal

- SF Index, regime, and 30d Brier calibration are computed separately and surfaced at https://simplefunctions.dev/admin/calibration.
- No SimpleFunctions index / regime / calibration signal is bound to this topic yet — the headline above is market-derived only.
