What is a PredictIt market?
Predict
Users can use real money to buy shares related to the result of political events on an online political futures market. Each event, like an election, has a number of contracts connected to it, each of which corresponds to a distinct result. Eight different contracts, each corresponding to a particular candidate winning or losing the election, might be used to simulate a contest between four candidates.
individual contract’s share price fluctuates in response to market demand. When the result of the event is known, owners of shares that correspond with the correct result are paid $1 for each share they owned.
In a presidential primary, for instance, a user purchases 10 shares at a price of 20 cents each, predicting Candidate A will win. The user gets $10 if Candidate A wins the election. If the candidate loses, the user loses his initial $2 investment in addition to not earning any money.
Why do PredictIt markets matter?
Election outcome predictions are made with the help of services like PredictIt. Polls are inadequate for the job, according to Microsoft Research economist David Rothschild: “I can construct a poll that can simulate everything about a prediction market…except markets have a way of encouraging you to come back at 2 a.m. and change your answer.
