3 prediction markets price this story:

  • Oura — the market puts it at 17%, with $182 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 1 Jan 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Oura confirms an initial public offering before January 1, 2027. Otherwise, it resolves to No. Readers often mistake the news headline about oversubscription for a confirmation of the IPO itself.
  • Will Oura not IPO before January 2027? — the market puts it at 84%, with $52 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 1 Jan 2027. The market resolves to "Yes" if Oura does not complete its initial public offering by December 31, 2026, at 11:59 PM ET. It resolves to "No" if the company lists on a primary exchange and begins trading before that deadline. Readers often mistake the news headline about delays for the final outcome, but only an actual listing on a recognized exchange counts toward the resolution.
  • Before Jul 1, 2027 — the market puts it at 81%, closing 1 Jul 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Oura Health Oy confirms an initial public offering before July 1, 2027. It resolves to No if that confirmation does not happen by that date. Readers often mistake the linked news story about a delay for the final resolution, but only an official IPO confirmation counts.

Odds are the market's probability that the outcome happens, updated every few minutes. They are information about what traders expect, not a forecast we make and not investment advice.
