Billboard updates its Hot 100 songs chart each Tuesday (with adjusted release schedules on some holiday weeks), reflecting data from the previous week (Friday-Thursday). Each Billboard chart is then titled “Week of (date of the upcoming Saturday)”. This market will resolve according to the number 2 song on the Billboard Hot 100 chart titled “Week of August 22, 2026”. Songs will be primarily ranked by order on the specified chart. If two or more songs are tied for any position, ties will be broken by alphabetical order of the songs' listed titles. This market will resolve to the song that occupies the second-highest finishing position after applying this ranking. This market will resolve as soon as the relevant chart is published. If the Billboard Hot 100 chart for the specified week is not published within 14 calendar days of the expected release date, this market will resolve to “Other”. The resolution source for this market will be the official Billboard Hot 100 chart, published on the Billboard website (https://www.billboard.com/charts/hot-100/) or through other official Billboard channels.Recent chart data shows a tight race for the Hot 100's #2 spot the week of August 22, driven by strong streaming gains and radio traction for tracks from Ariana Grande's Petal album, Taylor Swift's "I Knew It, I Knew You," Ella Langley's country hits like "Be Her" and "Choosin' Texas," Morgan Wallen's "Been By Now" debut, Stella Lefty's "Boston," and Olivia Rodrigo's "Drop Dead." Momentum hinges on mid-August updates to consumption metrics and airplay adds, with Langley's dual entries and Wallen's sales push creating crossover competition against pop frontrunners. Historical patterns favor established artists with sustained radio support, though late surges from new releases could shift positions before the tracking week closes.
