Analysis

5d ago

Caiado's third-place odds have surged 29% over seven days to 40¢, suggesting shifting market sentiment toward the Goiás governor as a viable third-force candidate in Brazil's 2026 race. The extreme realized volatility of 846% and elevated info arrival rate of 3.7/hour indicate this market is highly reactive to Brazilian political developments, though the modest $43.6K daily volume and 6¢ spread suggest limited liquidity for larger positions. The asymmetric implied yields (321% for Yes versus 143% for No) reflect the market's conviction in Caiado's outsider status, though with 171 days to expiry, significant consolidation around traditional frontrunners could rapidly compress these odds.

Resolution rules

A presidential election is scheduled to take place in Brazil on October 4, 2026. This market will resolve according to the listed candidate who receives the third-most valid votes in the first round of this election. The named candidates will be primarily ranked by the number of valid votes received in the specified election. If two or more candidates are tied on valid votes, ties will be broken by alphabetical order of the candidates' last names. This market will resolve to the candidate that occupies the third-highest finishing position after applying this ranking. If the result of this election isn't known definitively by June 30, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, the market will resolve to "Other". This market will resolve based on the result of the election, as indicated by a consensus of credible reporting. If there is ambiguity, this market will resolve based solely on the official results as reported by the Brazilian government, specifically the Superior Electoral Court (Tribunal Superior Eleitoral, TSE) (e.g., https://dadosabertos.tse.jus.br/).
