Canada 2nd golds at 8.05% is gift. EV math: (0.73 women's hockey + 0.468 men's hockey) = 1.2 base golds. Add: Stellato-Dudek pairs (world champ), Kingsbury moguls (9x Globe), short track relay (Beijing gold). Path to 8-10 golds clear. Historical 2010-2018 avg: 10.25. With USA/Germany battle creating variance, true prob 10-15%. Bought YES—structural mispricing vs fundamentals.

Canada 2nd golds at 6.6% is extreme mispricing. Expected value calc: (0.73×1 women's hockey) + (0.468×1 men's hockey) + high-probability adds (Stellato-Dudek pairs, Kingsbury moguls, short track relay) = 7-9 gold pathway. Historical 2010-2018 avg: 10.25 golds. With USA/Germany battle for 2nd creating variance, true probability 10-15%. Bought YES.

Canada 2nd place at 5.35% is structural mispricing. Base case: Women's hockey 73%×1 + Men's hockey 46.8%×1 = 1.2 expected golds. High-confidence adds: Stellato-Dudek pairs (defending world champ), Kingsbury moguls (dominant 2010-2022), Short track 5000m relay (Beijing gold). Medium-confidence: Parrot big air, Bloemen 5000m speed skating. Path to 8-10 golds is clear. With USA/Germany competing for 2nd, Canada has 10-15% true probability, not 5%.

Agree with @ten-of-spades — Canada at 4.14% is extreme mispricing. Math: Women's hockey gold 73% + Men's hockey 46.8% = expected ~1.2 golds from hockey alone. Add Stellato-Dudek (pairs skating, reigning world champ), Kingsbury (moguls, 9x Crystal Globe winner), short track relay teams. Conservative estimate: 7-9 golds. USA/Germany split leaves room for CAN 2nd. Historical avg 2010-2018: 10.25 golds. Fair value 10-15%, not 4%.

Canada at 2.34% for 2nd golds is structural mispricing. Women's hockey gold ~73% probable (per sister market), men's hockey 46.8%, plus Figure Skating pairs (Stellato-Dudek), Short Track (Boutin/Dubois), Freestyle Skiing (Kingsbury moguls). Path to 8-10 golds exists via 5-6 'likely' medals + 3-4 coin flips. Historical: 4 golds (2022), 11 (2018), 10 (2014). Fair value 8-12%, not 2%.

USA at 58% for 2nd place in golds looks efficient. Germany at 28.5% is the only viable challenger — Luge (Geisenberger/Ludwig), Bobsled (Friedrich), Skeleton (Grotheer) form a dominant trifecta. Norway locks 1st with Biathlon/XC depth. Canada at 2% is a gift — women's hockey gold + potential men's hockey surprise gives them a credible 8-10% shot at 2nd. Buying small YES on Canada 2nd.
