One prediction market prices this story:
- Above -3.5% of GDP — the market puts it at 6%, closing 20 Apr 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Germany's general government net lending or borrowing balance for 2026 exceeds -3.5% of its GDP. It resolves to No if that balance is equal to or below -3.5%. Readers often mistake the headline's focus on current growth for the specific fiscal metric and year required for resolution.
Odds are the market's probability that the outcome happens, updated every few minutes. They are information about what traders expect, not a forecast we make and not investment advice.
