The S&P 500 closed above 7000 for the first time, and the Polymarket contract for the S&P 500 closing higher on April 14 is at 100% YES.

Inflation expectations have dropped below 3.5%, and the index has rallied 11.2% in just 12 trading days. The April 14 market sits at full YES. The April 13 market also shows 100% YES.

The rally follows markets moving past the Iran conflict, with peace talks and a temporary truce easing tensions. The 7000 level, combined with falling inflation expectations, suggests traders are pricing in continued upside from de-escalation. A complete resolution hasn’t happened yet, and conditions can shift quickly.

Traders should watch for new developments in the Iran peace talks and U.S. economic indicators. Jerome Powell’s upcoming remarks or unexpected geopolitical shifts could move these contracts.
