Analysis

This contract estimates an 86% probability that the Suez Canal will record more than 260 transit calls between July 27 and August 2, 2026. The Suez Canal is one of the world's most critical shipping chokepoints, and daily transit volumes fluctuate based on global trade patterns, seasonal demand, vessel scheduling, and any disruptions to canal operations. At this probability level, the market is pricing in a baseline expectation of normal to above-normal traffic flow for this seven-day window. The outcome will be finalized when official transit data is published by the Suez Canal Authority for the specified week. Key uncertainties include whether geopolitical events, weather conditions, or operational incidents disrupt passage, and whether summer shipping patterns align with historical norms or deviate significantly.

  • Suez Canal Authority publishes daily transit counts; the market must wait for official data covering July 27–August 2, 2026 to resolve
  • Seasonal summer shipping demand and vessel scheduling are major drivers of baseline traffic; sustained disruptions (attacks, blockages, or canal closures) would push counts lower
  • The spread between 260 (86¢), 270 (74¢), and 280 (64¢) contracts suggests market uncertainty about the magnitude above 260, indicating traders believe the outcome is likely but the exact volume is uncertain
  • Historical Suez Canal transit averages typically range 40–50 transits per day; 260 in seven days equals ~37 per day, which is plausible but would require verification against recent actuals
  • No scheduled maintenance or announced force majeure events are priced in at this probability; any new disruption announcement would lower the probability materially

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.
