Real price history (past month), from Polymarket. Down-sampled to 24 points.
What the market is pricing
The market prices this outcome as heavily favoured, near-certain at 93%. The probability fell notably over the past day, suggesting either shifting expectations about the election outcome or reduced confidence in Abiy Ahmed's continuity in the role despite his current political standing. The near-nine-in-ten level reflects market confidence in his position, though the recent downward move indicates some uncertainty remains.
How this market resolves
This market resolves to yes if Abiy Ahmed is officially appointed and sworn in as Prime Minister of Ethiopia following the June 1, 2026 general elections. Interim or caretaker prime ministers do not count.

What could move it
- Major shifts in pre-election polling or political developments in Ethiopia before June 2026 could move odds significantly in either direction.
- Any change in Abiy Ahmed's political status or formal candidacy announcement would likely trigger swift repricing.
- The lack of a fixed resolution date beyond the election means settlement depends on the swearing-in process following the vote.
