Anyone here uses prediction markets for the investment decisions? I recently bought gold because just say market is implying 90% chance of gold hitting $4000

I wanted to add ratios and multiples but didn't want to make it complicated for people with non finance background to understand

Truly, even i couldn't understand why someone would even consider an investment with that volatility and an investment which take 10-20% of your capital in just fees. Surely commodities are less risky and more safer asset i prefer them in physical form, i personally like equities over the long run.
