Calibration

MEDIUM tier, this pattern is present in calibration data but with limited resolutions. Treat the confidence as a directional estimate, not a precise probability.

Patterns of this shape resolved 0 YES of 5 historical Polymarket markets that share at least one of this claim's entities (5 NO, 0% YES rate).

Entities

• Islamabad (place) gravity 0.0104 · momentum -0.031 · Q1362
• Saudi Arabia (place) gravity 0.0102 · momentum +0.128 · Q851

Signals

• factor 90.55
• window_days 30
• edge_weight_prior 4
• edge_weight_recent 362.2
• event_count_recent 640

Confidence (69%) is computed numerically from these signals. The sentence prose was written by an LLM given only the structured signals as input, the LLM never sees or chooses the confidence number.

What would change our mind

Edge weight between Islamabad and Saudi Arabia returns to its 30-day baseline, or two clean weeks pass with no fresh co-mention from a tier-1 source.

Inversion conditions are a property of the pattern detector, not the LLM. Watch for this signal move and the claim should weaken or be superseded.
