## Analysis

This probability reflects the market's estimate that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will make a specific statement during an upcoming Health Subcommittee hearing. The current 38% level sits between two distinct viewpoints: Kalshi contracts averaging 45% suggest moderate confidence in the event occurring, while Polymarket contracts at 29% reflect greater skepticism. The divergence may reflect uncertainty about which specific statement qualifies, timing of the hearing, or RFK Jr.'s participation. The primary driver is whether a scheduled Health Subcommittee hearing occurs and whether RFK Jr. appears and speaks on expected topics related to his HHS role. Resolution depends on the hearing date and what constitutes a qualifying statement—factors that create the 16-percentage-point spread between venues.

### Key factors

- Scheduled date and confirmed participation of RFK Jr. in a Health Subcommittee hearing
- Definition of what constitutes a qualifying statement during testimony
- Volume differential between venues ($17,936 on Kalshi vs. $339 on Polymarket suggests unequal liquidity and potentially different market compositions
- Related contract pricing on RFK Jr.'s tenure at HHS (55¢ on Kalshi) may indicate underlying concerns about his continued role
- Absence of recent trading activity on some related contracts ($0 volume) suggests potential information gaps or low trader interest

## Methodology

Probability is **liquidity-weighted** across all bound Kalshi/Polymarket contracts: Σ(price × volume) ÷ Σ(volume). 30-day trajectory uses the daily mean of intraday 5-min captures. 24h delta = today's mean − yesterday's mean. Movement events are ≥3pp daily moves in the last 7 days.
