Analysis

5d ago

This market shows extreme illiquidity with zero 24-hour volume despite $20k open interest, suggesting the 7¢ price may not reflect genuine market consensus but rather stale positioning. The astronomical 2424.5% implied yield on the Yes side is a classic sign of a deeply mispriced long-shot contract where the risk-reward is skewed by low liquidity rather than fundamental conviction. The recent price decline from 8¢ to 7¢ combined with a 13 Cliff Risk Index warrants caution, as this indicates potential for sharp moves if liquidity conditions change or new information emerges ahead of the 2026 election cycle.

Resolution rules

This market will resolve according to the winner of the 2026 Connecticut gubernatorial election. A candidate shall be considered to represent a party in the event that he or she is the nominee of the party in question. Candidates other than the Democratic or Republican nominee (e.g., Greens, Libertarian, independent) may be added at a later date. Candidates who run as independents will not be encompassed by the “Democrat” or “Republican” options regardless of any affiliation they may have with the party. The resolution source for this market is the Associated Press, Fox News, and NBC. This market will resolve once all three sources call the race for the same candidate. If all three sources haven’t called the race in this state for the same candidate, this market will resolve based on the official certification.
