Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.

Kalshi’s cumulative trading volume for 2026 U.S. midterm election contracts has surpassed $2.5 billion, nearly double the $1.3 billion recorded across the entire 2024 election cycle. The figure reflects total activity in midterm-related markets through Election Day on Nov. 3 and does not represent single-day platform volume or company revenue. A single market on which party will control the House accounts for more than $400 million, roughly one-sixth of the total. The milestone signals growing demand for regulated event contracts as a way to trade U.S. political outcomes. Next, watch whether House-control and other individual race markets keep drawing volume as results are settled and payouts are determined.
