Washington Stock Exchange

Okay political junkies, time to put your (virtual) money where your mouth is. The Washington Stock Exchange is open for business! While there are real current event futures markets such as Intrade, this kind of thing is just for fun.

BTW, over at Intrade the Culver - Nussle race is listed at 70-30. A contract expires at $100 for a win and $0 for a loss meaning a high confidence in Culver. Whereas over at The WSX it is at 54.98 Culver and 57.44 Nussle. WSX is brand spanking new and it was fun to watch my paltry trades move the market.

WSX follows in the footsteps of the Hollywood Stock Exchange which has been open for about six or seven years now. I've been playing it desultorily for most of that time and have a portfolio in the 85th percentile. HSX has been seriously studied as predictive indexes and even the play money markets have been shown to be very accurate.

So, line up your portfolios and let's see who the real prognositcators are!
