How to Interpret This Data

Consensus probabilities represent the aggregated market view, not a forecast. A consensus of 65% on a team does not mean that team wins 65% of the time. It means regulated prediction markets are collectively assigning a 65% probability to that outcome based on current information.

Probabilities close to 50% indicate genuine market uncertainty. Probabilities above 70% or below 30% indicate strong directional consensus. The distance between these figures and actual outcomes is the subject of ongoing research into prediction market efficiency.
