US military aircraft mobilize, face losses amid Iran tensions

US military aircraft and tankers are mobilizing and facing losses amid tensions with Iran. The market for Israel military action against Iran by April 14 is at 24% YES, up from 10% yesterday.

The odds shift follows the fragile ceasefire and the collapse of US-led talks in Islamabad. The April 21 market is at 46% YES, up from 24% a day ago. Traders appear to be pricing in escalation risk after the recent military losses.

Markets for other countries conducting military action against Iran by April 15 are at 9%, up from 5% yesterday. The April 30 sub-market is at 22% YES. The parallel increases across these contracts suggest traders are pricing in a broader coalition response.

Daily USDC volume is $58,601 for the Israel action markets and $6,516 for other countries. It takes just $1,205 to move the Israel market 5 points and $447 for other countries, so these odds can shift fast on thin liquidity.

The increased odds reflect traders assigning a higher probability of intervention, likely driven by the loss of military assets. A YES share at 24¢ for Israel action by April 14 pays $1 if it resolves YES, a 4.16x return if tensions escalate quickly.

Watch for statements from Netanyahu or US military leaders. Renewed strikes or confirmation of a ceasefire breakdown would move these odds fast.
