Ahead of Indiana, PredictIt Traders Bullish on Trump Winning the GOP Nomination,
Avoiding a Brokered GOP Convention

Yet Clinton Remains a Strong Favorite Over Trump in the General

WASHINGTON DC – With less than 24 hours until Republican voters go to the polls in Indiana, traders at the U.S.-based, real money political prediction marketplace, PredictIt.org, are bullish on not only Donald Trump winning the Hoosier State Tuesday but capturing the Republican nomination outright and avoiding a brokered Republican National Convention. To date, roughly 40,000 Americans trade and invest on the PredictIt markets each week on questions ranging from the presidential race to key Senate races to key issues before Congress.

Just a few weeks ago, “yes” shares in favor of a brokered convention were trading at 79 cents but that number has since plummeted to 11 cents while “no” shares are now trading at 89 cents. Similarly, traders are bullish on Trump winning the Republican nomination with Trump shares now trading at 90 cents while Cruz shares are trading at just 5 cents. Not surprisingly, PredictIt traders are also very bullish on Trump delivering a sizeable win in Indiana Tuesday night where Trump shares are trading at 95 cents while Cruz shares have dropped to 5 cents.

“Although speculation over a brokered GOP convention reached a fever pitch in recent weeks, it’s clear that PredictIt traders are bullish on not only a big Trump win in Indiana Tuesday night but capturing the nomination outright and avoiding a brokered convention,” said Brandi Travis, Chief Marketing Officer at Aristotle Inc., which services PredictIt.org in conjunction with Victoria University of Wellington. “The intense trading and speculation we’ve seen from the thousands of Americans who invest in our marketplace each week is an important reminder that Predictit offers critical real-time insight into future political events both at home and abroad.”

On the Democratic side, trader confidence in Hillary Clinton winning Indiana has inched up in recent days with Clinton shares trading at 77 cents while Sanders shares have dropped to 23 cents.

Finally, it’s clear that trader confidence in Trump’s ability to win the Republican nomination does not translate to the general election where traders are siding with Clinton (62 cents versus 38 cents) to defeat Trump and win the presidency.
