Analysis

5d ago

This market shows severe illiquidity with zero 24-hour volume despite $1,279 in open interest, and an unusually wide 84¢ spread suggests thin order books on both sides. The 42¢ price implies a 42% probability for Carpenter, but the asymmetric implied yields (204.3% for Yes vs. 107.1% for No) indicate significant mispricing or uncertainty about the underlying odds. With 247 days to expiration and a neutral regime score, this appears to be a speculative position rather than an actively traded market, making the current price potentially unreliable for forecasting purposes.
