1:00 Update:
I have decided to move my political odds commentary to the sports betting forum. From time to time I will comment on the stock portion as to the significance of events and how they relate to the markets.
But as far as the odds I will post them here. I will post the current odds along with my estimation of what they should be.
Political odds:
Moore over Strange in Alabama special election:
7 to 3 in favor of Moore. I recommended Moore when he was a dog. The line is getting about where it should be. I would say it should be close to 4 to 1.
Party winning the White House in 2020:
5 to 4 in favor of the Democrats. My estimation is 2 to 1 in favor of the Republicans, maybe higher.
Flake 6 to 4 to win Arizona Primary. I think the odds should be close to 5 to 1 against. This is the best political wager I see so far on the board.
Ryan 7.5 to 1 to win the Wisc Primary. My prediction is the odds should be no more than 3 to 1, perhaps a bit less.
Kasich to run in 2020 is even money. My prediction is 5 to 2 in favor of him running.
Control of the house after 2018 elections: Republicans 11 to 10. I think it should be around 3 to 1 in favor of the Republicans.
I will post odds as they come up that I feel have EV.
My estimations are not based upon any political beliefs I may have but only upon my observations of the political chaos that the U.S. is engulfed in at present.
