One prediction market prices this story:
- USA — the market puts it at 38%, with $1 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 1 Jan 2034. The market resolves to Yes if the United States is officially named as a host nation for the 2038 Men's FIFA World Cup and this announcement comes from one of the designated Source Agencies. The outcome is No if the USA does not receive this confirmation from those specific sources. Readers often mistake the linked story about Netflix’s 2030 rights deal as relevant, but only the FIFA host announcement 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.
