Why this made the card

  • The raw disagreement is +9.0 pts: our 43.0% against the market’s 34.0% with the juice removed
  • The edge survives the blend into the market: 1.0% expected value a unit at +188
  • It cleared the stake floor at tier B, 1.5u

A measured disagreement, sized to the doubt.

Technical provenance

forecast 3e89abcf-bb39-445e-adfc-ccb7716d0683; draw b3877bcf-e544-43b9-95c3-2b0cdb887408

What can beat us

  • The market holds the other side at 66.0%; we are the disagreement, not the consensus
  • Break-even at +188 is 34.7%; our cushion past it is +8.3 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.
