Analysis
This Dembele-specific contract shows extreme mispricing with a 3392% implied yield on the Yes side, suggesting the 5¢ price significantly undervalues his odds relative to the broader Ballon d'Or field. The sharp 100% price rise over seven days (2¢ to 4¢) combined with modest $12.3K daily volume indicates thin liquidity that may be amplifying volatility, and the 24-point Cliff Risk Index flags meaningful tail risk as we approach the late-2026 resolution. The asymmetric yield spread (3392% vs 5.9%) and neutral regime score suggest this is a speculative position rather than a consensus market, warranting caution on the sustainability of current pricing.
Resolution rules
If Ousmane Dembele wins the Ballon d'Or in 2026, then the market resolves to Yes.
