The outcome is Yes if Jeff Bezos wins the Republican presidential nomination in 2028 and accepts it. The outcome is No if he does not win or accept that specific nomination. Readers often mistake his public comments about AI for an actual political campaign announcement.

The market resolves to Yes if Forbes reports that Jeff Bezos becomes the second person globally to reach a net worth of at least $1 trillion USD before January 1, 2033.
