Highlights include: Record Micro
E-mini Equity Index futures ADV of 854,000 contracts, nearly double the monthly average since May launch through July
In the quest for a "home run" investing or trading strategy, there sometimes can be value in playing "small ball." That's one early-innings takeaway from CME Group's (CME) new Micro
E-mini equity index futures, which have posted robust trading volume since the contracts were launched in early May.
The
e-Mini will be developed at the Cowley site that employs around 4,500 people and already produces the conventionally fuelled Mini while the drivetrain will still be imported from southern Germany.
