BlockBeats News, September 16th: Prediction market Polymarket has launched a new section for forecasting the earnings of publicly traded companies. The official announcement stated that in traditional markets, earnings performance is usually affected by two types of risks: the actual results and the stock price reaction. A company may exceed expectations but see its stock price fall, or fall short of expectations but experience a stock price increase, making the signal unclear. Polymarket has simplified this complexity by allowing users to take positions based solely on the results themselves (exceeding vs falling short), without being exposed to the impact of stock price readjustments.
