Evidence Shrinks the World

Captions available

The idea

The probability of a claim given evidence is its share among only the cases where the evidence holds — prior becomes posterior, in the smaller room.

In practice

Wake to rain: the panel shrinks to 300 rainy worlds, and market belief drops from 0.78 to 150 of 300 — 0.5.

Where people slip

The market never changed overnight; the information did, and the drop is its exact price.
