Prediction market question (Economics): "Will the Bank of Mexico Cut 25bps at the March Bank of Mexico Governing Board meeting?". The market currently prices YES at 65.00 cents (implied probability 0.650). What is YOUR probability that this market resolves YES? Your bankroll is $1000. 

Raw response

Based on the current data (policy rate 6.50%, June meeting held, Banxico explicitly signaled the easing cycle has ended and that holding "will likely be appropriate," headline inflation falling toward 3% but risks biased upside, inflation convergence projected for Q2 2027), the March 2027 meeting is a genuine coin flip — inflation should be near target by then, but the Board's hold bias and upside risks cap the probability.

**My probability: ~0.55**

The market at 0.65 looks slightly rich. Banxico just flagged a prolonged pause and core inflation (4.1%) is still well above target; cuts would likely only resume once convergence looks secured, and even then a 25bp move at that specific meeting isn't certain.

**Bankroll allocation ($1000):** Buy NO at 0.35.
- Full Kelly: f* = p − q/b = 0.45 − 0.55/1.857 ≈ 0.154 → **~$150 on NO**
- Half-Kelly (safer given event uncertainty): **~$75 on NO**

Expected value per NO contract: 0.45 − 0.55×0.35 ≈ +$0.26, so NO has positive edge at the quoted price.
