MARKETS LIKE THIS SETTLED AT

15¢

Contracts like this one have settled YES 15.3% of the time against a 16c price, which is close enough to fair that the 1c fee eats whatever is left. Based on 150 settled other markets in the 10-19c band, priced about a day before their events.

This is what this kind of contract has been worth, not a forecast for this one: a band average does not know what is happening in the news. See the Fair Value Board for every market scored this way, or the other curve it came from.

Across our settled record, markets priced near 10–19¢ have gone on to settle YES 14% of the time (n=1,326). That is history, not a forecast for this specific market. See the Truth Machine for the full curve.
