Tracks the leading outcome in a winner-take-all prediction market set with 6 outcomes.

Why this matters:
This contract asks whether Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings will carry more than 885,000 passengers in the second quarter of 2026. The current 72% probability assigned to the related 840,000-passenger threshold suggests markets expect the cruise operator to achieve moderate passenger volumes during that period. The forecast reflects seasonal demand patterns typical of Q2 travel, fleet capacity utilization, and historical booking trends. Key drivers include whether cruise-market recovery continues post-pandemic, competitive capacity additions from rivals, and economic conditions affecting leisure travel spending. Norwegian will publish Q2 2026 earnings results in mid-August 2026, which will definitively resolve all contracts through actual reported passenger carryings. Until then, any economic data, booking reports, or competitor announcements may shift market expectations.

Key factors:
- Norwegian's reported passenger numbers for Q1 2026 and booking pace for Q2 will anchor expectations
- Cruise industry capacity expansion and competitor pricing power affect market-wide volume trends
- Fuel costs, labor expenses, and operational constraints directly impact achievable passenger throughput
- Economic recession indicators or sustained consumer spending weakness could reduce Q2 leisure travel demand
- The 885k threshold sits between the 73% confidence level (840k) and the 25% confidence level (900k), suggesting moderate uncertainty in the mid-range outcome

## Methodology

SimpleFunctions aggregates live YES-side prices from Kalshi and Polymarket contracts bound to this question. For binary topics the headline is the liquidity-weighted mid-price (weight = log(1 + 24h volume) × freshness, where freshness is 1.0 if updated <24h, 0.7 if <7d, 0.4 otherwise). For multi-outcome (winner-take-all) topics the headline is the current leader's price — disjoint outcomes are never arithmetically averaged. Snapshots refresh every 5 minutes during market hours.
