Stock market and election

Post by Strange »

There are couple dealers that have created Trump and Biden baskets of stocks (i.e. sectors/companies that are expected to benefit or hurt from the election outcome) and use option skew to imply the current election probability. I am not convinced that something like that would be at all accurate given the number of moving parts, though.

That's just marketing - a conversation opener for sales calls.



@gaj, your best bet is to look at betting markets and betting aggregators. They won't all show you price histories, but some might.

Cheese ends from Tesco would qualify as PIK bonus, I'd imagine?
