- Super Bowl commercials become tradable assets on prediction market platforms.

- Regulatory uncertainty looms over sports-related event contracts.
- Prediction markets experience growth fueled by live sports events.
Making Deals on the Super Bowl My Specialty
Folks, let me tell you, this Super Bowl commercial thing is getting really interesting. It's like the stock market, but with more touchdowns. These prediction market platforms, Kalshi and Polymarket, they're letting people trade on which companies will run ads. Who would have thought you could make money predicting if Coca-Cola is going to show up during the big game? Very interesting. It's like 'The Apprentice,' but with more commercials and less firing… maybe.
The Price of Glory and Commercials So Expensive
The price of these commercials is outrageous. Totally outrageous. $8 million for 30 seconds? And some going for over $10 million? These guys must be making a fortune. But you know what? Last year's game had 127.7 million viewers. That's huge. It's tremendous. Everyone wants to be there. It's like my rallies, but with more beer and less… well, you know. And speaking of things that are soaring, have you seen what's happening in Japan? Japanese Stocks Soar to Record Highs After Landmark Election. Their economy is booming, just like it was when I was President.
Tech Companies Taking Over The Airwaves Its Fantastic
NBC says technology companies are buying up most of the ad spots. Even Uber Eats. They are delivering a lot of food. Forty percent of the advertisers are new to the Super Bowl. These companies are smart. They know what's good. Very very smart. They should hire me, and I would tell them how to make very good commercials. Very great commercials. They'd say, "Sir, you're the best!"
Insider Trading? Sad
Now, some people are saying there's insider trading going on with these prediction markets. Hundreds, maybe thousands, of people know whether their company is running an ad. I know a lot of people. Believe me. They say existing laws prohibit it, but who's going to enforce them? The Commodity Futures Trading Commission? Sad. Very sad. They need someone strong to take charge. Someone like me, but I am a very busy person. Very very busy.
Regulation Always Needed to Stop the Bad Guys
This whole thing is a mess. Is it gambling? Is it financial derivatives? The courts are tied up in knots. Michael Selig, the new chairman of the CFTC, is talking about new rules. Good. We need rules. We need to make sure everything is fair. Everyone agrees. The best way to win is to have your opponent cheat.
Live Sports, Making Markets Great Again I Love it
Despite the mess, live sports are fueling growth. Kalshi is seeing huge increases in trading volume. The contract on who will win the Super Bowl has already accounted for over $150 million. That's a lot of money. Big money. So the question is, who is going to win? Seattle Seahawks or New England Patriots? The ratings will be through the roof, everyone will be tuning in, and all the brands will get exposure. It's all fantastic. It is going to be great.
