The small team of The Economist’s Project Red Stripe is about to make the decision on which project it will “take to market”. I’m biased. I believe that displaying market-generated predictions is the logical extension of any idea and news publishers. But should The Economist set up its own prediction sub-exchange or should it just cherry-pick the probabilities generated on various liquid prediction exchanges out there?
