What it means for prediction markets
- The favored outcome did not materialize: Dallas’s 76 percent kickoff price reflected a strong market preference, not certainty.
- Live prices moved substantially: Arizona’s 32-cent swing highlights how much its market-implied prospects changed during the contest, though the recap summary does not establish the timing.
- Volume figures have limits: The 5.8 million dollars and 331,623 trades measure activity across tracked markets; they do not show how trading was distributed among the three platforms.
