Elisabeth Diana, head of communications at Kalshi, said the company plans to launch new futures contracts tracking the US consumer price index and core inflation indicators excluding food and energy on December 8. These contracts will be similar to traditional futures, have an expiration date, and are aimed at institutional investors rather than the so-called perpetual contracts that the company began offering earlier this year. Kalshi's best-known business is the forecasting market. The platform provides binary event contracts linked to the US CPI; the futures launch is another business.
