Analysis

5d ago

The Bengals' AFC Championship contract is pricing in an extremely low 5% win probability with an exceptional 2,444.6% annualized yield on the Yes side, though this figure is inflated by the long 284-day time horizon to resolution. Despite $30K in open interest, the market shows zero 24-hour volume and a tight 1¢ spread, suggesting illiquidity and limited conviction among traders; the recent price movement from 4¢ to 5¢ represents modest upward momentum that may reflect Cincinnati's actual playoff trajectory rather than market inefficiency.

Resolution rules

This market will resolve according to the team that wins the 2027 AFC championship game. If at any point it becomes impossible for a listed team to win the 2027 NFL AFC championship per the rules of the NFL (e.g., they are eliminated in the playoffs), the corresponding market will resolve to “No”. If the 2027 NFL AFC championship game is cancelled, postponed after March 31, 2027 ET, or there is otherwise no winner declared within that timeframe, this market will resolve to “Other”. The primary resolution source will be official information from NFL (https://www.nfl.com/); however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
