2 prediction markets price this story:

• Palantir — the market puts it at 7%, closing 1 Jan 2027. The market resolves to "Yes" if any part of the U.S. federal government acquires a stake in Palantir before January 1, 2027. Otherwise, it resolves to "No." Readers often mistakenly think news about private investors or foreign governments counts toward resolution.
• International — the market puts it at 89%, closing 16 Nov 2026. The market resolves to Yes if a Palantir representative mentions International during the next earnings call, including the question-and-answer session. Readers often mistake the linked news story about Sadiq Khan for the resolution trigger, but only statements made on the call count.
