Google Finance Integrates Prediction Market Data From Kalshi and Polymarket

Google Finance has integrated data from US prediction markets Kalshi and Polymarket, marking its first inclusion of event-based financial tracking alongside traditional assets like stocks and commodities. This move highlights the growing relevance of crowd-based forecasting, allowing users to view live odds on events such as elections and regulatory outcomes. Kalshi operates under CFTC oversight, while Polymarket uses blockchain infrastructure. Analysts suggest this integration blurs the line between traditional finance (TradFi) and decentralized data, potentially offering quicker sentiment indicators than traditional equities. The inclusion is seen by some as legitimizing decentralized markets and could prompt clearer regulatory stances on event contracts.
