Trader consensus on Polymarket reflects low odds for an Iran Supreme Leader transition by year-end, driven primarily by unverified health rumors surrounding 85-year-old Ali Khamenei amid subdued regime stability. Recent Israeli strikes on Iranian targets in October prompted Khamenei's vow of harsh retaliation, yet the response remained measured, avoiding escalation that could precipitate internal upheaval. The July election of reformist President Masoud Pezeshkian followed hardliner Ebrahim Raisi's fatal May crash, but power remains firmly with Khamenei and the Assembly of Experts, which shows no signs of action. No major scheduled events loom, though proxy conflicts or health disclosures could shift probabilities rapidly.
