Kalshi’s $100 Million “Combos” Ignite a Parlay Race With Polymarket in U.S. Sports Betting

Kalshi’s $100 Million “Combos” Ignite a Parlay Race With Polymarket in U.S. Sports Betting

Kalshi revealed its new “Combos” product for multi-leg sports bets hit over $100 million in trading volume in just one week—a rare peek into the rapid growth of prediction markets in sports. Parlays, which pay out only if every leg wins, made up 63% of New Jersey’s online sports betting revenue through October. Both Kalshi and competitor Polymarket are racing to roll out similar offerings. Polymarket has dangled a $50 bonus for its first multi-leg bet launch. Meanwhile, DraftKings and Flutter’s FanDuel have launched prediction products in states where online sports betting remains banned, though execs remain skeptical that exchanges can rival sportsbooks’ “breadth of choice,” often dismissing them as “structurally limited.” Bank of America analysts estimated back in November that prediction markets now account for 3% to 8% of the legal U.S. online sports betting market — still small, but no longer on the sidelines. Adam Rivers, a managing director at Alvarez & Marsal, pointed to the absence of “the same range of exotic bets” seen at sportsbooks, highlighting “same-game parlays” as a key gap.

Stock market today: Nasdaq slides as bank earnings and credit-card cap talk hit Wall Street

U.S. stocks finished lower Wednesday, with the Nasdaq dropping 1% as tech shares tumbled and bank stocks weakened following mixed quarterly results. The S&P 500 slipped 0.53%, the Dow edged down 0.09%, while consumer staples and energy sectors gained ground. The Russell 2000 hit a record close. Traders are now pricing in at least two Federal Reserve rate cuts by year-end. “After a nice run, and so-so or mediocre earnings, you're seeing profit-taking and consolidation” in banks, said Michael O’Rourke, chief market strategist at JonesTrading. Markets are grappling with a Washington headline that hit just as earnings season kicked off: President Donald Trump suggested a 10% ceiling on credit-card interest rates. The news pressured lenders and card-payment companies. Visa tumbled 4.5%, Mastercard shed 3.8% on Tuesday, as JPMorgan faltered and financial stocks dragged the S&P 500 down. “It seems to be sinking in,” said Tim Ghriskey, senior portfolio strategist at Ingalls & Snyder, though he warned a cap would be “extremely difficult” to implement.

  • Marubeni (TSE:8002) Stays Strong, but Valuation Looks Stretched
    July 2, 2026, 9:44 PM EDT. Marubeni stock is up sevenfold in five years, returning 65.8% over the last year. But valuation signals are mixed. The DCF model puts shares 13% over intrinsic value, factoring projected free cash flows of ¥363.6 billion. The price-to-earnings ratio is 14.5, close to peers but below the stock's estimated fair P/E of 24.6. So the valuation risk is higher if the company's cash flow growth or capital allocation changes. Simply Wall St gives Marubeni a 3 out of 6 for valuation, a score that points to some caution after recent gains.
