3 prediction markets price this story:

  • Colombia / Colombian — resolved “Yes” on 14 Oct 2026. The outcome is Yes if Donald Trump states "Colombia" or "Colombian" (including plural or possessive forms) between October 1, 2026 at 10:00am ET and November 1, 2026 at 12:00am ET. Otherwise, the outcome is No. Readers often mistake the source of truth, assuming any mention in news reports counts rather than only direct statements by Trump.
  • Belize — the market puts it at 9%, closing 1 Jan 2027. The outcome is Yes if Israel and Belize establish formal diplomatic ties before January 1, 2027. Otherwise, the outcome is No. Readers often mistake this deadline for a different date or assume that informal contacts count as normalization.
  • Israel — the market puts it at 8%, with $513 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 1 Jan 2027. The outcome is Yes if Donald Trump physically travels to and stays inside Israel between now and January 1, 2027. Otherwise, the outcome is No. Readers often mistake the linked news story about arms sales for the resolution criteria, but only Trump's physical presence matters.

Odds are the market's probability that the outcome happens, updated every few minutes. They are information about what traders expect, not a forecast we make and not investment advice.
