One day to go and Betfair makes Hillary an 83% chance but the markets could be over-reacting

One day to go and Betfair makes Hillary an 83% chance but the markets could be over-reacting

Why I’ve now taken my Clinton spread betting profits There’s a rule in betting generally that markets have a tendency to over-react to big news. With the White House race we saw Trump price rise sharply to more than 30% when the initial FBI announcement came about opening up the email case a week and a half ago. Overnight we’ve seen the opposite with Trump moving back to the 16-17% range on Betfair as an instant reaction to the no…

Why YouGov says we should beware of the phantom swings: dramatic bounces in the polls aren’t always what they seem

Hillary is now even more than reliant on the First Lady to get her over the line

Hillary is now even more than reliant on the First Lady to get her over the line

The race looks a lot tighter than it 24 hours ago What’s become almost the best guide to how WH2016 is going is how often it is Michelle Obama who is making the news. She was the star of the Democratic convention in August – an event that was certainly a turning point in the polling. Recently she’s been really forceful on Trump’s issues with women and last night made a big speech alongside Hillary in North Carolina which got…
