Despite recent merger of opposition parties Yamina and Yesh Atid into a joint list led by former prime ministers Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid—announced April 26 and polling as Israel's largest party with 26 projected Knesset seats ahead of Likud's 25—traders assign an 87.5% implied probability that Benjamin Netanyahu will not drop out of the October 2026 legislative election by July 31. Netanyahu has reaffirmed his intent to run and lead Likud, dismissing early election calls amid coalition strains from prior ultra-Orthodox exits, while recent Channel 12 and Kan surveys show his bloc trailing at 50 seats versus opposition's 60 but retaining competitiveness. Absent health issues, legal resolutions, or party revolt signals, his historical resilience amid wars with Iran proxies sustains this trader consensus, with party list deadlines potentially looming.
