Analysis

4d ago

This market shows extreme asymmetry with a 1,845.5% implied yield on the Yes side versus just 18.1% on the No side, suggesting severe mispricing or illiquidity despite $14.2M open interest. The 9¢ price implies only a 9% Democratic win probability in IN-02, a heavily Republican district, but the zero 24-hour volume and tight 1¢ spread indicate this is a stale, illiquid position with potential for significant repricing if new information emerges. With 200 days to expiration and a high cliff risk index of 10, this market carries substantial execution risk for any position-takers attempting to arbitrage the yield differential.

Resolution rules

This market will resolve according to the party of the candidate who wins the IN-02 congressional district seat in the U.S. House of Representatives in the 2026 midterm elections. The midterm elections will take place on November 4, 2026. ​A candidate's party will be determined by their ballot-listed or otherwise identifiable affiliation with that party at the time all of the 2026 House elections are conclusively called by this market's resolution sources. A candidate without a ballot-listed affiliation to either the Democrat or Republican parties will be considered a member of one of these parties based on the party with which they most recently expressed their intent to caucus at the time all of the House elections are conclusively called by this market's resolution sources. 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 United States government, specifically the Federal Election Commission (https://www.fec.gov/).
