Analysis
This market shows extreme yield asymmetry with a 407.5% implied yield on the Yes side versus 32.4% on the No side, suggesting significant mispricing or tail risk premium for the narrow 1.6-2.0% GDP growth band. The zero 24-hour volume combined with $8,613 open interest and a wide 6¢ spread indicates low liquidity, making the 22¢ price potentially unreliable for actual execution. The sharp 4¢ rally over seven days into a neutral regime with 318 days to expiry warrants caution—this could reflect genuine probability shifts or thin-market volatility rather than informed positioning.
Resolution rules
If GDP growth in 2026 is between 1.6 to 2.0, then the market resolves to Yes.
