Gotcha risk — resolution-rule assessment

Show full assessmentShow less

The rules clearly specify the exact metric and source: the individual ranked first on Google's official Year in Search Global 'People' list for 2026. Resolution relies entirely on Google's published list without requiring subjective interpretation or multi-source consensus. The rules also provide a clear deadline of March 31, 2027, resolving to Other if Google fails to publish the list by then. One minor detail to note is that Google's Year in Search tracks trending search spikes rather than raw total search volume, but the rules explicitly name the exact published list that governs resolution.

Resolution rules

This market will resolve according to the individual ranked #1 in Google’s official Year in Search Global "People" list for 2026. The specified list is expected to be displayed on the Google Trends Year in Search hub, with location selected to Global. The navigation procedure as of market creation involves going to trends.withgoogle.com/year-in-search/ and clicking through Global → Trending → People. The 2026 page is expected to appear using the same navigation once released (as the 2025 page currently shows the specified ranking). This market will resolve based on the specified list regardless of navigation procedure. This market may resolve as soon as the specified list for 2026 is released. If Google does not release the specified list by March 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to “Other.” The resolution source for this market will be the specified list as published by Google.
