Trump’s Odds Stable; Biden Passes Warren

For the 5th straight week, Donald Trump’s odds remained at 2.77X.  These are the highest odds in 13 months.

There were only two changes in the odds:

Joe Biden continued to improve his odds moving from 15.1X to 14.6X.  He was at 20.0X just 9 weeks ago.  This latest move was enough to move him from 5th place to 4th place jumping over Elizabeth Warren.

Elizabeth Warren continued to drop as her odds moved from 14.7X to 14.9X. She has dropped for the last 4 weeks. Warren was in 3rd place at the beginning of March but began to drop shortly thereafter when she announced she would serve out her term if she wins in November.  She is now in 5th place, her lowest showing in the election cycle.

Trump’s Odds Continue at One Year Highs; Obama not Running; Zuckerberg Testifies in Front of Congress; Ryan Retires from Congress

Donald Trump’s odds stayed flat to the last two weeks at 2.77X.  These are his high highest odds in over a year and nearly as high as the next five competitors combined.

Most of the movement this week came from outside the top 10:

Michelle Obama shared she will not be running a little over a week ago.  There seemed to be a delay in the odds as they were flat last week and dropped this week from 28.0X to 34.5X.  That was enough to have her drop from 9th place to 10th place.

Mark Zuckerberg came away from his testimony in front of Congress with some bumps and bruises.  The same could be said for his odds as they dropped from 33.8X to 50.2X.  That dropped him from 11th place to 16th place.

Paul Ryan announced his retirement from Congress and online rumors of running against Trump spread immediately.  The odds-makers and betting public didn’t seem to put much into those rumors as his odds dropped from 38.6X to 47.0X.  He is in 12th place overall.

Trump’s Odds Continue at One Year High; Warren Unlikely to Run; Biden Continues to Have Strong Poll Numbers; The Rock May Run, Unlikely in 2020

Donald Trump’s odds remained constant from last week at 2.77X. He’s had those same odds in 3 of the last 4 weeks.  They are his highest in the last 56 weeks.  They are nearly as high as the next five opponents combined.

Elizabeth Warren stated she will serve all 6 years of her term if reelected, which means she will not run for President. That is the second time in the last few weeks where there were reports of her not running.   Her odds dropped from 13.0X to 13.8X, although she remained in 4th place overall.

Joe Biden’s odds kept on improving this week as polls kept showing favorable numbers.  The odds improved from 16.1X to 15.6X. They have now been up for 5 straight weeks, when he was at 20.0X. He remained in 6th place overall.

Dwayne Johnson sounded like a candidate, just not for 2020 in an interview with Rolling Stone. His odds dropped from 37.4X to 39.9X.  These are his lowest odds since July 2017.
