Equities extend their advantage

Trading volume in the market totals $976,400. The reported prices place the S&P 500 well ahead of both alternatives, though they reflect market expectations rather than a settled result.
What it means for prediction markets
- Clear favorite: At 82 percent, the S&P 500 has a substantial pricing lead over Bitcoin at 15 percent and gold at 5 percent.
- Prices need context: The three reported percentages total 102 percent, so they should not be presented as a probability distribution summing to 100 percent.
- Resolution remains ahead: The market runs to December 31, 2026. The supplied summary does not include the detailed performance-comparison or settlement rules.
