The US Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) publishes the deciding value in its monthly Motor Vehicle Sales release, typically in the first week of the following month at 7:00 AM CT, and the value used is total vehicle sales in the Seasonally Adjusted at Annual Rates (Millions) column of the matching table in the Motor Vehicles dataset. The outcome is Yes if that value for December 2026 is above the value specified in the market question and No otherwise. The first officially published value is used and later revisions are not considered, so the outcome becomes final when BEA releases the report for December 2026. Early resolution does not apply, and if the release is delayed, resolution waits until it is published.
