I WILL be betting on this question myself.
Extended to end of Feb - no change to the criteria it’s just because it will take a while to be released and no harm in the market being open during that time.
This market will be resolved quite a few months after close date, to be clear, as the report is issued later on in the year.
Due to the way in which the government releases this data, this question will close on December 31st but may not resolve until the following march.

@LukeShadwell Looks like this is the most relevant graph, seems to be increasing again, possibly due to the Israel-Gaza War
