What the market asks and how it resolves
This event asks whether the US-Yemen ceasefire continues through a set date. Each market resolves to 'No' if the United States takes a qualifying military action against Yemen by 11:59 PM Yemen Standard Time on that date. A qualifying action is an air strike or surface-to-surface missile strike, initiated by the US and directly impacting Yemen, carried out by US armed forces. Proxy, contractor, coalition-only, naval gunfire, cyber, and intercepted munitions do not count. Otherwise the market resolves 'Yes'.
How traders price it and how it moved
The October 15 market trades at 99.2%, the highest of four active markets. The other deadlines sit at 94.4% for October 18, 86.5% for October 31 and 65.0% for November 30. Prices fall as deadlines lengthen, consistent with more time for a qualifying strike. The October 15 contract started the recent eight half-day window at 83.5%, is up 15.7 percentage points, and sits at its high of 99.2%. Total volume is $1.84M, with $698,982 traded in the last 24 hours.
How concentrated the odds are
Odds cluster near certainty for near-term deadlines, at 99.2% for October 15 and 94.4% for October 18. Longer-dated markets carry more uncertainty, with October 31 at 86.5% and November 30 at 65.0%. The spread across deadlines shows traders assign rising chance of a qualifying US strike as time extends. These are market-implied probabilities reflecting current trader pricing, not forecasts or advice, and they can shift quickly on news.
