This market will resolve to “Yes” if either of the following conditions are met by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”. 1) The listed individual is removed or resigns from their primary political post or from their position, if any, on the Chinese Politburo or its standing committee, with a consensus of credible reporting describing the resignation/removal as a “purge”, “ousting”, or similar language, or to have presumably or definitively occurred as a result of corruption, bribery, other criminal wrongdoing, or a lack of political favor. 2) The listed individual is expelled from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Qualifying announcements and reporting of a purge before this market's end date will immediately resolve this market to "Yes", regardless of when the announced resignation/removal/expulsion goes into effect. A listed individual leaving office at the end of a regularly scheduled term, or being removed/resigning from office without a consensus of credible reporting describing the resignation/removal as a “purge”, “ousting”, or similar language, or to have presumably or definitively occurred as a result of corruption, bribery, other criminal wrongdoing, or a lack of political favor, will not qualify. The resolution sources for this market will be information from the Chinese Government and a consensus of credible reporting.Xi Jinping’s anti-corruption drive and loyalty enforcement within the Chinese Communist Party and People’s Liberation Army continue to shape expectations around potential 2026 purges. The January 2026 investigation of Central Military Commission Vice Chairman Zhang Youxia and Joint Staff Department chief Liu Zhenli capped a campaign that has removed or sidelined more than 100 senior PLA officers since 2022, leaving the CMC with only one other uniformed member. Additional removals from advisory bodies occurred ahead of the March Two Sessions, while the July expulsion of former Politburo member Ma Xingrui marked the third such case in recent years. With cadre assessments scheduled for summer 2026 ahead of the 2027 Party Congress, traders monitor signals of further churn in military commands, Rocket Force roles, or civilian leadership tied to corruption probes or political alignment.
