2 prediction markets price this story:
- Above 1575000 — the market puts it at 89%, closing 31 Mar 2028. The market resolves to Yes if Amazon reports more than 1,575,000 employees in 2026. It resolves to No if the count is 1,575,000 or fewer. Readers often mistake the deadline for the end of the calendar year rather than the specific reporting period defined by the company.
- Above 116 — resolved “Yes” on 5 Oct 2026. The market resolves to Yes if the Carbon Arc Amazon Credit Card Spend for September 2026 exceeds 116. It resolves to No if that spend is 116 or lower. Readers often mistake the start date of Prime Day for the relevant deadline, but only the actual credit card spending data from September 2026 matters.
