The number has hovered around 7.5% for most of the active period, trading between 7.0% and 65.5% with a 0.0 pts move in the last 24 hours. It has rarely strayed far from its current level, showing no sustained trend. The contract resolves to 'Yes' if Netanyahu receives a presidential pardon, commutation, or other formal grant of clemency from Israeli President Isaac Herzog for any charges by the deadline of Jan 1, 2027. Otherwise it settles at 'No'. The primary source is official information from the Israeli government, but a consensus of credible reporting also suffices. A sharp repricing would likely follow any credible signal from the presidency that clemency is under consideration. Conversely, the absence of action as the Jan 1, 2027 resolution date approaches would keep the probability subdued. Because the market relies on official confirmation or widely accepted reporting, unverified rumors are unlikely to shift the odds.
