Prediction markets are shutting down
After more than 25 years of operation, the Sauder School of Business
Prediction Markets are shutting down for good. The research project
has come to and end and will not be renewed. We thank all of the
participants who have contributed valuable research data through
their participation in the market. I am immensely grateful to
everyone who has participated to the project, and in particular
my colleague Tom Ross who co-directed the predecessor version with
me, the UBC Election Stock Market. It's time to say goodbye to the
project that has generated novel insights into the inner workings
and financial economics of prediction markets. Thank you all!
All remaining trader accounts will be liquidated and Cheques will be
mailed to the last address on file by December 31, 2021.
