2 prediction markets price this story:

  • Joe Biden — the market puts it at 3%, closing 1 Jan 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Joe Biden is formally charged with a federal crime between now and January 1, 2027. It resolves to No if no such charge occurs within that timeframe. Readers often mistake this for any investigation or allegation rather than requiring an actual formal charge.
  • Hunter Biden — the market puts it at 8%, with $9 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 21 Jan 2029. The outcome is Yes if Hunter Biden receives a presidential pardon, commutation, or reprieve from Donald Trump during his second term and before January 21, 2029. Otherwise, the outcome is No. Readers often mistake the linked story about FBI officials for the resolution criteria, but only an official act of clemency counts.

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.
