A fund holding one side of a resolved question is therefore holding something that ends at one of two numbers, and the filings warn that it may lose substantially all of its value. Two things differ between these issuers: whether a fund tracks one event or a portfolio of them, and how much each states about how it holds them.\n How a prediction market ETF pays, as of Sep 25, 2026.
