2 prediction markets price this story:

• India — the market puts it at 14%, with $150 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 1 Jan 2027. The outcome is Yes if a free trade deal with India becomes law through Senate ratification and Presidential approval, or via Congressional-Executive Agreement and Presidential signature before January 1, 2027. The outcome is No if this does not happen by the deadline. Readers often mistake the signing of any agreement for the final resolution, but only enacted law counts.
• Russia — the market puts it at 9%, with $127 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 1 Jan 2027. The outcome is Yes if Donald Trump physically travels to and stays inside Russia between now and January 1, 2027. The outcome is No if he does not meet this condition within that timeframe. Readers often mistake the linked news about EU sanctions for the resolution criteria, but only Trump's physical presence in Russia matters.
