Yes = Buy
No = Short
This is a permanent market and its duration will be lengthened as long as it's allowed. The aim is to sell your stock (see top right after you've made a bet) when you believe your side has over-corrected and buy in/short it again once it's over-corrected to the other side. Essentially, it's meant to function like a traditional stock market.

Sorry for the n00b question, I know very little about investing. What does a permanent stock for a person mean, exactly? What is the current price meant correlate with? Like an "approval rating"? In that case would it be what one thinks a general/global sentiment about him is or scoped to what Manifold users think about him? Thank you!
@agentofuser It tracks the sentiment about him that Manifold users has.
However, because it never expires, such sentiment need not track any real world event about Elon.
