Proposed resolution: NO Actual value: 9.77 USD/kg
Rationale: The contract asks whether the Sm metal (Western) spot price exceeds $100/kg on June 30, 2026. While no direct 'Western spot price' is published, all authoritative sources (SMM, Northeast Asia index, and spot quotes) report prices between $9.64 and $10.35/kg for June 2026. Western spot pricing is typically referenced to these benchmarks, with no evidence of a price anywhere near the $100/kg threshold. Thus, the literal and reasonable interpretation of the criteria is not met.
