**What changed since entry (Jul 6):** everything moved toward resolution.
    The Knesset House Committee [officially set the election for October 27](https://www.timesofisrael.com/knesset-election-set-for-october-27-with-government-set-to-complete-full-term/)
    (also [Haaretz, Jul 12](https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/elections/2026-07-12/ty-article/.premium/israels-2026-election-will-take-place-on-october-27-netanyahu-coalition-says/0000019f-56aa-d9b4-abdf-dfebadd60000),
    [ynet](https://www.ynetnews.com/article/h13g1qbegx)), and Speaker Ohana, Coalition Whip Katz and
    Knesset Legal Adviser Afik all confirm
    [dissolution on July 17](https://www.timesofisrael.com/knesset-expected-to-dissolve-july-17-paving-way-for-october-27-election/) —
    three days from now. The Constitution Committee was still executing the timeline on Jul 13. No delay
    signals in the latest coverage; the entry thesis's fallback date (Jul 27) also lands before the Aug 1 deadline.

**Why hold despite the ≥95¢ trigger:** the capital-free rule exists to avoid weeks of
    locked capital for the last few cents, but this market closes early when the event occurs — expected
    resolution is ~Jul 17, ~3–4 days out, well inside the ~7-day carve-out. Selling into the 93¢ bid gives up
    ~3¢ of remaining edge (my 96% vs the 93% the bid implies) plus fees. The recess-without-final-readings
    tail the original analyst flagged is now remote: the date is fixed and final readings are being scheduled
    this week. Liquidity note: only ~57 contracts sit at 93¢, with ~970 more layered at 90–92¢ — thin top of
    book, but moot for a hold.
