Kalshi
This market tracks whether Donald Trump will mention “AUKUS” during any United Nations meeting or event, excluding his remarks to the United Nations General Assembly, originally scheduled for September 22, 2026. Currently, the probability of this occurring on Kalshi is 100.0%, with an equal 100.0% probability assigned to the opposing outcome. Resolution will be determined by whether Trump utters “AUKUS” in the specified context, according to the resolution source. Traders should closely watch for any official statements or press conferences leading up to and including September 22, 2026, as that is when his remarks to the United Nations General Assembly are scheduled to occur.
The event evaluates whether Donald Trump utters any of 37 specified phrases or terms during United Nations meetings or events excluding General Assembly remarks on September 22, 2026. Resolution relies on video broadcasts or official transcripts confirming Trump's use of exact phrases, their plural/possessive forms, or alternative terms indicated by slashes (e.g., 'Crypto/Bitcoin'). Markets resolve to Yes if any qualifying phrase is spoken; otherwise, 'Event does not qualify' resolves to Yes. Cancellations or failures to meet payout criteria trigger the 'Event does not qualify' outcome. Postponements within 14 days keep markets open. Private conversations, archival content, or unauthenticated statements do not count.
Currently, it’s important to note that this market represents the collective prediction of traders on Kalshi. Comparing these odds to those of political analysts reveals how the wisdom of the crowd differs from expert opinion. If analysts broadly expect a certain topic to be avoided, but this market shows significant trading volume on the possibility of it being mentioned, that suggests a divergence in perspectives. This comparison can highlight potential blind spots in traditional forecasting and provide a unique perspective on the event's likely course.
On Kalshi, this market is priced using a continuous double auction. Traders buy and sell contracts representing different potential outcomes, and the prices of these contracts fluctuate based on supply and demand. As more people buy a contract, its price increases, reflecting a higher perceived probability of that outcome occurring. On Kalshi, prices reflect that venue's order book, liquidity, and how traders price the outcome right now. The price movement is driven by traders’ individual assessments of the likelihood of Trump making specific statements, influenced by his past rhetoric, current events, and geopolitical considerations. This creates a dynamic and responsive pricing mechanism.
This market resolves around Oct 6, 2026, with the outcome confirmed once the event is verifiable from credible public reporting. Resolution will be based on a comprehensive review of transcripts and video recordings of Donald Trump’s remarks during the United Nations meetings. The market will determine whether each statement was demonstrably made, and the outcome will be based on that verification. Traders should monitor news sources and official statements as the resolution date approaches to stay informed about the event’s progress.
Several signals could significantly impact this market. Any major geopolitical developments leading up to the UN meetings, such as escalating international tensions or unexpected diplomatic breakthroughs, could shift expectations about Trump’s focus. Furthermore, statements made by Trump or his campaign team in the days before the event could provide clues about his intended messaging. Finally, significant news coverage or public debate surrounding specific policy issues could also influence trading activity, as traders adjust their predictions based on the evolving information landscape.
