- Saturday, June 8, 11:33 AM Worried about the dreaded QE taper and the market volatility that will likely accompany it? Consider buying shares of CME Group (CME) and CBOE Holdings (CBOE), Barron's says. CME should benefit from ambiguity regarding the direction of interest rates as a quarter of "clearing and transaction-fee revenue [comes from] interest-rate derivatives," and CBOE has seen VIX trading volumes rise 111% Y/Y through May. (Also: Wells Fargo likes CME) 7 Comments
- Tuesday, June 4, 8:30 AM CME Group is upgraded to Buy at Wells Fargo with price target raised to $80-$90 from $55-$65. Analyst Chris Harris sees interest rate and equity trading as strong contributors to growth and the company earning $5/share as cyclically (hopefully cyclically) depressed volumes rise. Shares +1.1% premarket. Comment! [Financials]
- Friday, May 31, 3:30 PM CME Group fines Goldman Sachs (GS) $875K (not a typo) over its failure to "diligently supervise" a top Treasury futures trader in 2008. The trader - who now works at Morgan Stanley - will also be suspended from CME access for 10 days. As is customary, neither the trader nor Goldman admitted or denied the violations. 2 Comments [Financials]
- Wednesday, May 29, 10:54 AM CME Group (CME +0.8%) puts the NYMEX Building in NYC on the block, hiring Newmark Grubb Knight Frank as its broker. Sale or not, the operation of the NYMEX will continue in NYC, whether through a sale-leaseback of the building or relocation to another site. (PR) Comment! [Financials]
- Friday, May 24, 8:18 AM CME Group (CME) declares $0.45/share quarterly dividend, in line with previous. Forward yield 2.81%. For shareholders of record June 10. Payable June 25. Ex-div date June 6. (PR) Comment! [Dividends]
- Tuesday, May 21, 1:32 PM CME Group plans additional cuts to its giant board, according to Executive Chairman Terry Duffy, speaking ahead of the annual meeting. At 30 members, the board is more than twice as large as those at ICE (11 now, but 15 after NYSE merger), and Nasdaq OMX (11). The large size reflects the CME's long history as a member-owned operation as opposed to today's public company. Comment! [Financials]
- Thursday, May 2, 7:19 AM More on CME Group (CME) Q1 earnings: Average daily volume of 12.5M contracts up 1% Y/Y - interest rate contract volume about flat, but equities +9%, fx +19%.

- Wednesday, May 1, 11:44 AM Responding to a WSJ article claiming high-speed traders are using a hidden facet of the CME's computer system to their advantage, the exchange operator promises improvements to "further reduce potential discrepancies," that rarely allow this data to reach the HFT crowd milliseconds before the rest of the world. 5 Comments [Financials]
- Monday, April 22, 1:00 PM CME Group admitted to accidentally making public derivatives-trading data that was supposed to be kept secret, upping investor concern about trade-disclosure rules. New rules require price and time data be made public, but the identities of those behind the trades be kept under wraps - something that was violated in this instance. 2 Comments [Financials]
- Monday, April 15, 8:10 PM In response to the spike in volatility, CME Group (CME) says it's raising collateral requirements for trading in benchmark gold, silver and other precious metals futures contracts, effective at the close of business Tuesday. Margins to trade Comex 100-troy ounce gold futures will be increased by 19%, silver will increase 18%, palladium 14% and platinum by 19%. Natural-gas futures will also increase 5.6% as well. 16 Comments [Commodities]
- Tuesday, April 2, 8:18 AM Credit Suisse takes metaphorical chips off the table, downgrading MS, SCHW, and CME to Hold after nice runs for each has them exceeding price targets established when the bank made them Buys.

Overall interest rate volume fell 7%. (PR) Comment! [Financials]
- Thursday, March 28, 11:06 AM CME Group and Nasdaq OMX (NDAQ) go after the HFT crowd, revealing plans for a wireless network to more quickly shuttle pricing information between Chicago and NYC. The plan is notable for the use of wireless technology as most firms still rely on slower, but more reliable and higher-capacity fiber-optic cable to speed orders along. Comment! [Financials]
