3 prediction markets price this story:

  • Switzerland — the market puts it at 3%, closing 1 Jan 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Switzerland officially recognizes Palestine before January 1, 2027. Otherwise, it resolves to No. Readers often mistake a political proposal or parliamentary vote for official recognition.
  • Switzerland — resolved “Yes” on 29 Sept 2026. The market resolves to Yes if Switzerland wins the UEFA Nations League match against Scotland in regulation time, excluding extra time and penalty shootouts. It resolves to No if Switzerland does not win within those 90 minutes plus stoppage time. Readers often mistakenly believe that a victory in extra time or via penalties counts toward the Yes outcome.
  • Switzerland — the market puts it at 1%, closing 15 Jan 2031. The market resolves to Yes if Switzerland wins the 2030 FIFA Men's World Cup. It resolves to No if any other team wins or if the tournament does not conclude with a champion. Readers often mistake the deadline for the match end time, but the resolution depends solely on the final winner of the entire tournament.

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.
