3 prediction markets price this story:

  • Before Jan 1, 2027 — resolved “No” on 10 Nov 2026. The outcome is Yes if California's 2026 billionaire tax becomes legally operative between now and January 1, 2027. It is No if the tax does not become legally operative within that window. Readers often mistake the news story about the campaign for proof that the tax is already in effect.
  • Yes — resolved “Yes” on 4 Nov 2026. The market resolves to Yes if California holds an official one-time billionaire tax ballot initiative before November 5, 2026. Otherwise, it resolves to No. Readers often mistake any proposed legislation or campaign activity for the required official ballot vote.
  • In 2026 — resolved “No” on 10 Nov 2026. The market resolves to Yes if a specific one-time tax on billionaires appears on a California ballot and wins voter approval. It resolves to No if that initiative fails or does not appear on the ballot. Readers often mistake general billionaire taxes for this specific ballot measure.
