Ian Buck Leads a Wide-Open Race to Succeed Jensen Huang at NVIDIA

Ian Buck: probably not (30%)

Jensen Huang's departure is increasingly treated as a matter of when, not whether — a congressional testimony market sits at 91% and a divorce market has surged to 42%, painting a picture of an executive whose personal and political exposure is rapidly accumulating. Buck leads the succession field at a thin 30%, meaning no heir apparent has emerged.

Bitcoin Is Likely to Revisit $70,000 Before Year-End

likely (84%)

What had been a leaning-yes call is now a likely one — though this market has swung across conviction tiers 26 times, so the signal is directional, not settled. The near-term picture reinforces the downside lean: a coin-flip on a dip to $70,000 within days, alongside an 84% read that the floor holds above $60,000 through 2026, sketches a volatile but bounded correction rather than a collapse.

The Fed Is Very Likely to Hike Rates in December

25 bps increase: very likely (90%)

A tightening cycle is extending well into 2027 — with no cuts priced for all of 2026 and March 2027 hike odds sitting at 60%, the Fed's pivot is not coming. The December move looks increasingly like the middle of a sequence, not the end of one.
