Higgs Boson on Intrade

Intrade, the futures market for real world events, has a contract on whether a Higgs Boson Particle will be observed before the end of the year. The trade in this contract spiked up dramatically recently. (See Physics Community Afire With Rumors of Higgs Boson Discovery at Wired.)

Ironically, even though the contract is gapping up on heavy volume, it still has no mass. (BWAHAHAHA!)
