By 2031, will it be evident that major US tech companies like Google, Amazon, Apple, and Meta are replaceable within the EU market by domestic European alternatives or companies from other regions?
This market resolves "Yes" if, by January 1, 2031, at least two of the following criteria are met:
Clear market share loss for major US tech companies (Google, Amazon, Apple, Meta) in significant sectors such as cloud computing, social media, mobile devices, or digital advertising.
Emergence and sustained growth of European domestic alternatives providing comparable functionality, user experience, and scalability.
Significant adoption or increased market share of non-US competitors, particularly Chinese tech firms (e.g., Alibaba, Tencent, Huawei), replacing roles previously dominated by US companies.
Notable EU regulatory actions or economic incentives explicitly designed to promote domestic alternatives over US companies, accompanied by measurable market impact.
The market resolves "No" if fewer than two of the above criteria are clearly established by January 1, 2031.
