Obama Breaking Away On Futures Markets

Filed in National by on April 5, 2008

Bettors are fleeing Clinton. McCain is unchanged around $0.40

2008.PRES.OBAMA
Barack Obama to win 2008 US Presidential Election Trade 50.3
2008.PRES.McCAIN
John McCain to win 2008 US Presidential Election Trade 39.5
2008.PRES.CLINTON
Hillary Clinton to win 2008 US Presidential Election Trade 8.6

I’m not giving investment advice, but if you buy Obama at $0.50 and he is the next President of the United States the contract pays $1.00 – you can’t make 100% in the stock market these days.

If you want to hedge you can buy Obama at $0.50 and Clinton at $0.09 and if a Democrat wins in November you’ll get an 80% return and if you know of any other investment with that risk/return profile I’d like to know about it.

OR

You could buy McCain now at $0.40 and sell the day after the Republican convention for around $0.50, and that should be a pretty safe 8 – 10%.
