Analysis

4d ago

France is priced at a modest 16% probability despite being a perennial World Cup contender, reflecting skepticism about back-to-back titles following their 2018 win and 2022 runner-up finish. The asymmetric implied yields (232.7% for Yes vs. 8.4% for No) signal meaningful conviction among No holders, though the $1.15M open interest and tight 0¢ spread suggest reasonable liquidity for a long-dated event market. The price has declined 1¢ over seven days and faces moderate cliff risk (5/10), typical for tournament markets approaching their 824-day expiration window.
