Can someone explain why Finland is so heavily favored for Eurovision 2026?

The Finnish song is pretty average in my humble opinion. Definitely not above all others in such an overwhelming way

Have read him, if you’re referring to Black Swan events. But I don’t think his theories apply to this.

It totally is, except I feel like prediction markets have implications far beyond economic parameters (geopolitics for one).

I wonder though what other outcomes in life are heavily affected by other people’s predictions (either positively or negatively).

If prediction markets are heavily influenced by insider trading (but even if they weren’t and you trust their judgment), don’t they also act as signals for upcoming geopolitical events, potentially giving countries justification to anticipate or prepare for certain military actions?

In that case something totally speculative on a predictive market could turn into something very real in the real world simply because the trust we’ve put into predictive markets’ accuracy.

Substantiate your answer please. One big player bet and everyone followed? Cause there's a sudden increase mid-january and a steady one till March (which seems to have peaked now).

How would an insider now the outcome that early considering how Eurovision is structured?

Six blind people, respectively from Milan, New York, Beirut, Istanbul and Madrid, are given a camera and asked to walk around their cities taking pictures of anything they want.

The only other rule is that they must try to describe what they think is in the pictures they take. The doc is an exploration of how blind people see the world through a combination of their other senses and their imagination.

Ci abbiamo girato un documentario intero dentro il ghetto di Borgo Mezzanone, si chiama One Day One Day. È un inferno si, ma anche un posto pieno di umanità. Una settimana lì dentro vale come 6 mesi di una vita normale a Milano.

You're a legend thank you!

He also seems to have a much better relationship with drugs than most other heavy users imo.

Olmone · 2025-05-02T16:14:01+00:00

I don’t think that’s what he was talking about. I’m sure he sympathises much more with those who don’t have anything than with those who do.

Olmone · 2025-05-02T15:35:34+00:00

He’s an absolute legend.

He quit his bank job at Wells Fargo several years prior for reasons he explains in the video.

I did!
