🔥 Weekly focus

This week Polymarket activity was heavily concentrated around Middle East developments. Iran-related contracts dominated both attention and volume, pushing geopolitical event markets into the core of weekly decision flow.

Iran situation

Market Probability Volume
Iranian regime falls before June 30?41% Yes$3M
US / Israel bomb Iran before March 2?98% Yes$2M
Iran closes the Strait of Hormuz?55% Yes$200K+
US invades Iran before 2027?23% Yes$235K
Iran appoints a new successor before March 2?33% Yes$567K
Reza Pahlavi enters Iran before March 31?10% Yes$3M
Key read: short-term military escalation was priced aggressively, while longer-horizon political outcomes remained much more fragmented.

⚔️ Ceasefire expectations

  • US × Iran ceasefire before March 2: 2% (about $2M volume)
  • US × Iran ceasefire before March 6: 12%
  • Iran / Israel conflict ends before March 7: 20%
  • Iran / Israel conflict ends before March 15: 36%
Interpretation: the market expected escalation to arrive faster than resolution. That asymmetry matters for timing, headline sensitivity, and overnight risk.
