Analysis

This market asks whether the U.S. President will sign at least one executive order during the week of June 21–27, 2026. The 83% probability reflects high confidence that at least one order will be issued, though markets for higher thresholds (2+ orders) drop sharply to 25%, suggesting uncertainty about volume. Presidential executive order activity typically correlates with legislative cycles, scheduled policy announcements, and responses to judicial or economic developments. The probability sits well above 50% because presidents sign executive orders frequently—averaging multiple per week historically—making zero orders during a full week an outlier scenario. Resolution depends on official White House announcements and Federal Register publication of any signed orders during the specified week. Near-term catalysts include scheduled legislation debates, regulatory deadlines, and any emergency declarations or policy shifts that might trigger executive action.

  • Historical baseline: U.S. presidents have signed multiple executive orders per week on average, making zero orders in any given week statistically uncommon
  • Contract structure shows declining confidence at higher thresholds (83% for >0, 57% for >1, 25% for >2), indicating market uncertainty about order frequency rather than likelihood of any action
  • Volume concentrated in the >0 and >1 contracts ($558 and $952 in 24h volume), suggesting active disagreement about whether typical weekly activity will occur
  • No scheduled legislative crises, recess periods, or known policy pauses mentioned for the June 21–27 window that would suppress routine executive activity
  • Resolution depends entirely on White House publication and Federal Register official record during the specified calendar week

How we compute these odds

SimpleFunctions aggregates live prediction-market contracts from Kalshi and Polymarket. Each slug groups contracts that resolve on the same underlying event, identified by venue event_id.

For binary slugs, the headline probability is the liquidity-weighted mid-price across all bound contracts. For multi-outcome slugs (e.g. elections with 3+ candidates), the headline is the leader’s price; we never arithmetically average disjoint outcomes — that would produce a number with no real-world meaning.

Snapshots refresh every 5 minutes during market hours; daily aggregates are computed at 04:00 UTC. The 30-day sparkline is drawn from per-ticker daily means stored in market_indicator_daily; 24h delta and movement events are derived from the same source.
