Frequently asked questions

Who is the favourite in Where will 2026 rank among the hottest years on record??

2 is the current favourite at 56 %, ahead of 5 other outcomes. That number is the market's implied probability right now, and it moves as people trade.

What do these odds actually mean?

Each percentage is the market's implied probability — the price of a contract that pays out $1 if that outcome happens. An outcome trading at 30 % means the market thinks it happens roughly three times in ten. Across a field like this the percentages add up to about 100 %, because exactly one outcome can win.

How often do these odds update?
