DraftKings, Flutter jump 7% as lawmakers target prediction market sports bettingMarch 23, 2026 10:05 AM
IH Market News
Shares of DraftKings (NASDAQ:DKNG) and Flutter Entertainment (NYSE:FLUT) surged about 7% on Monday morning after a Wall Street Journal report said U.S. senators are preparing bipartisan legislation aimed at banning sports betting contracts on prediction market platforms.The proposed measure would prevent entities regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission from offering contracts tied to sporting events. This would affect prediction market exchanges such as Kalshi and the U.S. platform of Polymarket. The legislation would also prohibit casino-style offerings — including slot machines, video poker, blackjack and bingo — from appearing on these platforms.Sen. Adam Schiff (D., Calif.) said the CFTC is effectively allowing these markets to operate and expand, arguing that Congress must intervene.He said it is time for lawmakers to step in and eliminate “this backdoor which violates state consumer protections, intrudes upon tribal sovereignty and offers no public revenue.”Sen. John Curtis (R., Utah), who is co-sponsoring the bill, said many young people in his state are increasingly exposed to addictive sports betting and casino-style gaming contracts that should fall under state oversight rather than federal regulators.The proposal would mark the first bipartisan Senate legislation aimed specifically at regulating prediction markets.DraftKings stock priceFlutter stock price

DraftKings Shares Advance as Super Bowl Betting Heats Up and Prediction Markets Draw ScrutinyFebruary 4, 2026 8:32 AM
IH Market News
Shares of DraftKings (NASDAQ:DKNG) climbed 2.3%, while Flutter Entertainment (NYSE:FLTR), the parent of FanDuel, rose 2.7%, as debate flared around the fast-growing prediction market sector in the run-up to Sunday’s Super Bowl.The rally comes amid a public dispute involving Kalshi Inc., the largest prediction market operator in the U.S., and data startup Juice Reel. According to Bloomberg, tensions emerged after a stock analyst used Juice Reel’s data to argue that users of prediction markets were losing money more quickly than bettors using conventional sports wagering apps.The disagreement intensified when Kalshi initially accused Juice Reel of “extortion.” Juice Reel’s founder pushed back, standing by the accuracy of the data and alleging that Kalshi had attempted to pressure him into withdrawing it. Kalshi later retracted the extortion allegation but continued to challenge the conclusions drawn from the data.Despite the controversy, established sports betting platforms appear to be holding their ground. Sensor Tower data shows that while Kalshi’s prediction app experienced a surge in downloads during the NFL playoffs, DraftKings and FanDuel continue to command far higher usage levels nationwide.The dispute has unfolded just days before Sunday’s Super Bowl clash between the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots, an event that typically ranks as one of the busiest betting weekends of the year.DraftKings stock priceFlutter stock price

On its way to $55 in 12 months. No one paying attention to activities of Jason the former CFO taking over some technology projects.
