Understanding Prediction Markets:

Prediction markets, like Polymarket, aggregate the beliefs of traders into probabilities. A market asking "Will Outcome X happen?" will settle to 'yes' if Outcome X occurs, and 'no' otherwise. The price of a YES share reflects the market's assessed probability of that outcome. For example, a share trading at $0.95 implies a 95% probability that the market's condition will be met. A probability of 99.95% suggests a very high degree of certainty among market participants regarding the resolution of the "Los Angeles Dodgers vs. San Diego Padres" question. The "odds shock" trigger specifically highlights instances where the probability changes by a notable percentage within a short period, indicating a rapid adjustment in market sentiment or information flow.
