Will President Trump resign before his term is up?
Alpha Opportunity
Alpha Thesis
We believe the Kalshi contract for President Trump resigning before his term is up is dramatically overvalued at 25%, with our estimate at 1%. No US president has resigned since Nixon in 1974, and Nixon resigned only because he lost all Republican support and faced certain conviction. Trump has a loyal Republican Congress, a loyal base, and has never in his life voluntarily ceded power. The 25% price reflects pure emotional speculation, not any credible pathway to resignation.
