03.15 16:24 UpdatedFair Value Reasoning:
1. **Key Figures Excluded**: Despite the sixth file release on March 5 (approx. 50k files) and a 'list' sent to Congress in Feb, the primary targets facing resignation calls are **not** sitting voting Members of Congress. Examples include Howard Lutnick (Cabinet Secretary), Stacey Plaskett (Non-voting Delegate), or former officials. 2. **Non-Qualifying Causes**: Reports regarding Marjorie Taylor Greene's resignation (Nov 2025) cite a political 'feud' with Trump rather than incrimination by file contents, failing the specific cause criteria. 3. **Narrowing Time Window**: With only 45 days remaining until the April 30 deadline, the major 'risk events' (Jan 30 massive release, Mar 5 release) have passed and been digested. The probability of a new, smoking-gun release causing a resignation in this short window is negligible. The current 4.5c price reflects lingering tail-risk premium rather than fundamental probability.

Rule Risk
The main risk lies in the ambiguity of attribution. While the rules require the resignation to be attributed to information in files released by the federal government during the market's timeframe, political resignations often involve mixed motives (e.g., 'spending time with family' or general 'scandal'). If a member resigns and the files are mentioned but not the 'sole' or 'official' reason, determining causation via media consensus could be contentious. Furthermore, the line between 'newly released files' and 'recycled old news' can sometimes be blurred.
