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.

@BionicD0LPH1N Well, I'm sort of asking, like, what does this stock represent? And how is the value of this stock tied to it's representation?
@moyamo Oh, I don’t really know, Manifold stocks are strange. How much people like an idea, maybe? How likely they think it will be relevant in the future, or something like that? It’s a bit of a nebulous thing to me. I’m not sure what you mean by your second question, can you reformulate? I don’t know the investment terms, if that’s one of them.
@BionicD0LPH1N Oh okay. I see. This is the first manifold stock I noticed. It's value is just what other people think it's value is.
