3 prediction markets price this story:

  • Will Marco Rubio win the 2028 Republican presidential nomination? — the market puts it at 14%, with $8k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 8 Nov 2028. The market resolves to Yes if Marco Rubio wins and accepts the 2028 Republican presidential nomination, as confirmed by a consensus of official Republican Party sources. It resolves to No if he does not secure this specific outcome. Readers often mistake the final nominee for the resolution criteria, but any replacement before election day does not change the result.
  • Cuba — the market puts it at 17%, with $89 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 1 Jan 2027. The market resolves to Yes if the U.S. Secretary of State visits Cuba before January 1, 2027. Otherwise, it resolves to No. Readers often mistake the linked story about Ecuador for a relevant event, but only a visit by the Secretary of State counts.
  • Will Marco Rubio win the 2028 US Presidential Election? — the market puts it at 8%, with $15k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 8 Nov 2028. The market resolves to Yes if Marco Rubio wins the 2028 US Presidential Election and No otherwise. It relies on the Associated Press, Fox News, and NBC calling the race for the same candidate. If these sources do not agree by January 20, 2029, the outcome depends on who is inaugurated.

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.
