Summary.
My estimated true probability for the Communist Party of the Russian Federation (KPRF) winning the most seats in the 2026 parliamentary election is extremely low, approximately 0.001 (0.1%). This is considerably lower than the current market price of 0.004 (0.4%). The established political system in Russia, dominated by United Russia and the Kremlin's control over electoral processes, makes it virtually impossible for any opposition party, even a 'systemic' one like the KPRF, to secure a plurality of seats under current conditions. Therefore, the market appears to slightly overprice the 'YES' outcome.

Key Factors.
Dominance of United Russia and the pro-Kremlin political system.
Lack of free and fair elections; state control over electoral processes.
KPRF's role as a 'systemic opposition' that does not genuinely challenge power.
Suppression of genuine opposition movements and leaders.
Risks.
Unforeseen major political upheaval or regime change in Russia.
A highly unlikely strategic decision by the Kremlin to allow KPRF to win most seats.
A fundamental and unprecedented shift in voter sentiment coupled with a sudden change in electoral integrity.

Will Kamala Harris run for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2028?
My estimated probability for Kamala Harris to announce a presidential campaign for the 2028 Democratic nomination is 0.88, which is notably higher than the market's current price of 0.81. This deviation is primarily driven by her position as the sitting Vice President, making her the natural successor and presumed front-runner if the incumbent president does not seek re-election. Her established national profile, experience, and likely party support make an announcement highly probable, even if the path to securing the nomination itself might present challenges. Therefore, the YES outcome appears underpriced.
Will Kamala Harris run for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2028?
My estimated probability that Kamala Harris will announce a presidential campaign for the 2028 Democratic nomination before January 1, 2028, is 0.78, which is notably higher than the current market price of 0.605. This estimate is driven by her current position as Vice President, her demonstrated ambition through a previous presidential run, and the strong likelihood of an open Democratic primary field in 2028 where she would be a prominent contender. While the future is uncertain, the historical pattern for Vice Presidents in such a position suggests a strong propensity to run.
Will Israel and Saudi Arabia normalize relations before Jan 20, 2029?
My estimated probability for Israel and Saudi Arabia normalizing relations before January 20, 2029, is 0.60, which is considerably lower than the market's price of 0.825. While long-term strategic interests and consistent US diplomatic pressure remain strong motivators, the ongoing Gaza conflict has made the Palestinian issue an immediate and high-stakes prerequisite for Saudi Arabia, a condition that will be extremely difficult to meet within the given timeframe, especially considering current Israeli political realities. The market appears to be underestimating the political challenges and the required concessions needed for such a sensitive agreement to materialize.
