Analysis

13d ago

The market is pricing a 46% probability for above-average Atlantic hurricane activity in 2026, but the extremely wide 15¢ spread and minimal $80 daily volume suggest thin liquidity and unreliable price discovery. The asymmetric implied yields (355% for Yes vs. 72% for No) indicate significant market uncertainty, though the neutral regime score and modest realized volatility of 200% suggest this isn't driven by recent dramatic price swings—rather, fundamental disagreement about 2026 hurricane frequency with nearly 11 months until resolution.

Resolution rules

If the NOAA's National Hurricane Center records more than 4 hurricanes of hurricane category 3 or above between January 1, 2026 and December 01, 2026, then the market resolves to Yes.
