pricing in
Factoring into expectations
Pricing in means incorporating expected future events into current valuations.
In financial markets, when traders anticipate news—interest rate changes, earnings reports, election outcomes—they adjust prices before the event occurs: The market has already priced in a rate cut.
By the time news arrives, its effect may be muted because it was priced in months ago.
The phrase extends beyond finance: Voters seem to have priced in his scandals.
