Peru's Political Upsetpolitics+$1K or 150% return

The Peruvian Chamber of Deputies election resolved today, and `123987456` proved prescient, earning $1K with a 150% return on their NO shares. Despite initial market sentiment, Juntos por el Perú ultimately failed to win the most seats, validating `123987456`'s conviction against the party. Their NO shares, acquired at an average entry of $0.40, resolved to $1.00, contributing to their impressive daily haul.

They netted another $1K, representing a 66% return on their NO shares. As the June 20th deadline passed, spot prices confirmed Silver did not breach the $115 mark, validating `123987456`'s position.

Morocco's World Cup Shock+$10K or 77% return

In a stunning turn of events, Morocco defied the odds to win the 2026 FIFA World Cup, turning a pre-resolution probability of 2.6% into a $10K payout for trader `athelstan`. Entering at an average of $0.01 for YES shares, `athelstan` saw a 77% return as the market settled.

Iran Uranium Deal Crumblesworld4.5%-50.0pp

Hopes for an Iran uranium enrichment deal by June 30 plummeted today, with the market probability dropping a massive 50.0 percentage points to just 4.5%. With only ten days left until the deadline, the $3.6M in 24-hour volume suggests traders are rapidly losing confidence in any diplomatic breakthrough. The market is now pricing in near certainty that Iran will not agree to end enrichment, reflecting a significant shift in geopolitical expectations.

Starmer's Short Leash10.5%$111K volume

A new market asking 'Starmer out by June 22, 2026?' has immediately surged with $111K in 24-hour volume. Despite the extremely short two-day fuse, the market currently sits at a 10.5% probability, indicating a non-negligible, if still unlikely, chance of a swift leadership change in the UK Labour Party. Traders are clearly keen to speculate on the immediate stability of the current political landscape.

● MARKET MOVERS

The biggest probability swing today saw the 'Iran agrees to end enrichment of uranium by June 30' market drop a dramatic 50.0 percentage points to a mere 4.5%. With the deadline looming, $3.6M in 24-hour volume indicates traders are increasingly skeptical of a last-minute deal.

▲ VOLUME SPIKES

Beyond the political drama, tennis dominated the volume spikes, with the Sabalenka vs Pegula and Zverev vs Fritz matches each seeing over $500K in 24-hour activity. The 'Paraguay vs. Australia end in a draw?' World Cup market also drew significant attention, with $178K traded.

★ NEW MARKETS

Fresh off the presses, new markets are already drawing significant capital. The 'Starmer out by June 22, 2026?' market saw $111K in its first 24 hours, while high-stakes tennis matches like Sabalenka vs Pegula and Zverev vs Fritz also debuted with over $500K each.
