Why this made the card

  • The raw disagreement is +8.0 pts: our 43.0% against the market’s 35.0% with the juice removed
  • The edge survives the blend into the market: 0.0% expected value a unit at +180
  • It cleared the stake floor at tier C, 1u

A measured disagreement, sized to the doubt.

Technical provenance

forecast 366b084b-18bb-4d5b-98ed-9f59a24866e6; draw 65aac708-07d0-47d5-8348-d5beb034d16f

What can beat us

  • The market holds the other side at 65.0%; we are the disagreement, not the consensus
  • Break-even at +180 is 35.7%; our cushion past it is +7.3 pts
  • One round of golf settles it; eighteen holes of variance can erase an edge this size without the number being wrong

Edges this size lose often. The record, not any one pick, is the product.
