U.S. bankruptcy filings increased by 11% during the first nine months of 2026, according to data from Epiq AACER cited by the American Bankruptcy Institute. This rise is attributed to higher borrowing costs, rising household expenses, and ongoing economic uncertainty. Individual filings rose by 7%, while commercial filings saw a similar increase.

Prediction markets are observing a slight increase in the implied probability of bankruptcy for companies like NuScale Power by the end of 2027.
