    Resolution rule

    Whether the June 2026 Data center value is strictly above every earlier monthly value available in the same first-release workbook.

    Deterministic formula

    June 2026 Data center SAAR > max(all earlier Data center SAAR observations)
    1. 1Retrieve the first official Census private-SA workbook that contains a June 2026 preliminary observation.
    2. 2Record the retrieval timestamp, workbook SHA-256, original Census URL, and an immutable Homecastr archive URI.
    3. 3Read the published integer values in millions of dollars SAAR; do not substitute a forecast or later revision.
    4. 4Find the maximum Data center observation dated before June 2026 in that same workbook snapshot.
    5. 5Resolve Yes only if the June 2026 value is strictly greater than that maximum; otherwise resolve No.

    Tie and equality policy: Matching the prior record resolves No; the June value must be strictly higher.

    Pre-market reference tape

    May 2026 preliminary set the current series high at $59.307B SAAR, so June must print above $59.307B.

    Census data is public but not natively on-chain. Any smart-contract settlement still requires a venue-approved oracle or attestation adapter.
