CME launches near-round-the-clock single-stock futures on 55 equities including SpaceX and Micron

CME Group launched cash-settled single-stock futures on 55 U.S. stocks (plus micro-sized contracts on 22 names) that trade on Globex from Sunday evening through Friday afternoon with a one-hour maintenance break. The contracts offer a simpler, margin-based way to express bullish or bearish views compared with options, with no time decay and no ownership rights, and are settled in cash based on the stock’s official closing price at expiration. Initial names include SpaceX, Micron Technology, Nvidia, Tesla and Apple, with CME hinting at potential expansion based on demand.

CME Unveils Around-the-Clock Single-Stock Futures for Big US Names

CME Group will launch more than 50 single-stock futures contracts tied to large US equities, cash-settled at the closing price, in two sizes (standard 100-share and micro 10-share) and trade five days a week nearly 23 hours a day, aiming to give traders leveraged exposure without options and attract retail participation amid IPOs and stock shortages; the move requires SEC and CFTC approvals and carries typical futures risks like choppiness after hours and trading commissions.

FanDuel Eyes Prediction Markets to Expand Its Betting Empire

FanDuel is expanding into prediction markets with FanDuel Predicts, now live in 16 states via a CME Group derivatives framework, as it seeks growth beyond traditional sports betting. Prediction markets are regulated as trading products by the CFTC rather than gambling, allowing wider access across states, but the move comes amid scrutiny over insider trading and societal impacts of wagering on politics or other real-world events. FanDuel says it will avoid high-risk bets (like elections or death) and remains focused on a sports-centric experience while expanding its addressable market.

CME Group CEO Duffy: Exchange Ready to Leave Chicago if Necessary.

CME Group CEO Terry Duffy said the exchange is prepared to leave Chicago if the city and state take steps that are perceived as "ill-conceived," such as imposing a transaction tax on financial firms. The remarks come as Mayor Brandon Johnson is being sworn into office after proposing additional taxes to help boost the city's revenue. Duffy's comments may add pressure on the new mayor who's promised a slate of progressive reforms, as he contends with a recent exodus of financial firms from one of America's best-known trading hubs.
