4-bullet brief | narrative

Kalshi prices moderate-growth outcome at 62%, Polymarket at 56%, a 5pp spread
Kalshi higher on ~$11K volume; Polymarket deeper at ~$30K, nearly 3x more liquid
Polymarket's lower price on the modal outcome may reflect broader outcome-bracket competition within its market
Resolution depends on how each venue defines 'moderate growth' versus adjacent economic-state buckets
