Why do you think you're right?
We're drifting further and further. Things could turn around, but with so many headwinds (including the disapointment around GPT-4.5), it seems that even a bull market lasting for weeks wouldn't turn things around.

Why might you be wrong?
Maybe if another AI product excites the market during a simultaneous rally for other reasons, I could imagine NVIDIA outpacing AAPL and MSFT enough to make this resolve as true.

I agree with @DKC , @404_NOT_FOUND , and others that this could be made much more interesting and informative if limited to accession protocols.

I'll echo the idea others have suggested that forecasting on whether a ceasefire will be declared in the first place might be more informative for the purposes of those posing the question.

Why do you think you're right?
Advanced AI makes this less implausible, but I still think this is unlikely. I think there is a much higher chance that something with the potential to mutate into something that could cause an event of high consequence is somehow released (either on purpose or accidentally), but then ultimately does not end up crossing the threshold set out in the question. Similarly, it could be that something with the potential to spread is released, but is contained or "dies out". I would estimate an 15% chance of something with potential getting out, but maybe only about 1/3 of the time that it hits the threshold described given that it gets out (advanced AI tools might give us better / smarter alerts on this type of thing). That leaves me with about 5%.

Maybe new technologies will make this easier than I'm imagining.

Why do you think you're right?
It seems like things here have gotten quiet. I don't know enough to completely rule out military actions, but it seems like unless something happens to disrupt the current status (like a crisis or shock), nothing will change. Attacking oil wells seems unlikely at this point, but more plausible than a ground invasion.

Why might you be wrong?
My first guess as to why I might end up being wrong on this would be some technicality that causes one of these to resolve true when it actually isn't in spirit.
Files
Why do you think you're right?
Continuing to lower with time. I haven't seen any updates that would cause me to stop lowering with time and a recent news search didn't reveal anything new from my previous forecast.
Why might you be wrong?
Maybe if something is happening quietly in the background and not surfacing to my attention.
