Nebius Group is the AI-infrastructure spinout of the old Yandex, and the market asks whether any buyer locks up an agreement to acquire it before 2027. The contract trades across roughly $7.9M in cumulative volume on Kalshi and Polymarket, and it resolves on December 31, 2026. The live board above ranks the current Yes and No prices on both platforms; the Nebius acquisition 2027 question stays open until a deal is announced or the year runs out.
Nebius is one of the more unusual names on any acquisition board. It is the rebranded remnant of Yandex's international business, now a publicly traded AI-infrastructure company building GPU clusters and cloud capacity for the model-training boom. That profile is exactly what makes a takeover plausible: every hyperscaler and chip vendor is hunting for compute, and a listed pure-play with real data-center assets is a tempting target. The market prices that tension as a long shot, not a base case.
The question is narrow and binary. It does not ask whether Nebius is a good business or whether its stock rises. It asks one thing: does any entity enter into an agreement to acquire the company before the deadline. An announced deal counts even if it never closes, which lowers the bar from a completed transaction to a signed agreement. That distinction matters, because deal announcements and deal completions can sit months apart, and the market only needs the announcement.
The bull case for Yes rests on strategic demand. AI-infrastructure capacity is the scarcest resource in the current cycle, and a buyer who wants instant GPU footprint may find acquiring Nebius cheaper and faster than building. The company's chip-vendor relationships and existing clusters are the kind of asset that draws inbound interest. The bear case, which the live board above leans toward, is that Nebius is currently a growth story its management wants to run independently, large strategic acquisitions face regulatory and financing friction, and most companies in any given year simply do not get bought. The Nebius acquisition 2027 price reflects a market that sees a real but unlikely path to a deal.
The cross-platform read is the useful tell here. Kalshi and Polymarket both list the same Yes/No question, so the spread between them is a clean signal of where sharper money sits versus retail flow. When the two platforms agree, the consensus is firm; when they diverge, one side is offering an edge. The board above shows the current Kalshi and Polymarket prices side by side, which is the fastest way to see whether the two venues are reading the takeover odds the same way.
The market resolves on December 31, 2026 at 11:59 PM ET.

Mergers in which Nebius is subsumed by another entity also count toward a Yes. The primary source of truth is official information from the company and its leadership, with a consensus of credible reporting used as a backstop.
