Admin, can we get a statement on this? The stock states this: "To qualify the contract to close at $1, 'decriminalisation' is defined such that the state must pass a law which has the effect of allowing the possession and transportation of more than 1 ounce (my bold) of cannabis by the general population...." Right now, after prop 64 was passed, anyone carrying "more than onby thedoctor - Closure requests
Also, this appears to reflect the same as the other two California stocks, for June 2017 and end 2017. Admin, it would be good to get a comment on this - there is a gap between the wording of the proposition and the wording of the contract. This information is available to all traders who read the contract and research the proposition and I believe the current market pricing is based on a mistby thedoctor - Closure requests
Further to this - the contract stipulates that the state must pass a law which allows "more than 1 ounce of cannabis" for personal use, however proposition 64, which was passed, allows "up to one ounce". As I have discovered many times before, iPredict stocks do not close on intent, they must cover the wording of the contract. I can't actually find the exact working of pby thedoctor - Closure requests

Disclosure - I am short on this one. The question is, does the ballot, in itself mean pot has been legalised. I can't find anything definitive to say it should.

Probability that Statistics New Zealand reports two consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth before the end of 2016by thedoctor - New Stock Ideas
Um, well that is interesting... The stock suggests something quite different: This contract will close when the Ministry of Economic Development publishes regular petrol price data for the week ended 21 August 2015. From the contract: "Results published by the Ministry of Economic Development will be taken 'as is', without rounding." The AA price is a completely different meaby thedoctor - Ask A Question

Can we get an indication on this? I think it is a false market. It does not appear as if anything will be resolved by August 1. He has stood down as the leader. I believe this implies that at the very least he would have to be reinstated as leader if he manages to gather the support, so is not the leader now. The party website still refers to him as leader, but that appears to simply be unchangedby thedoctor - Ask A Question

Peters statement: NORTHLAND BY-ELECTION MEDIA CONFERENCE Many months ago, we learned of alarming circumstances in the Northland electorate which would inevitably lead to a by-election. This information was known to a number of others and at a much earlier date, even well before the 2014 September 20 election. As it emerges there is to be a by-election in Northland on the 28th March.by thedoctor - Closure requests
