1. COMMODITY MARKETS IN NORTH AMERICA
2. COMMODITY MARKET Commodity market is a place where trading
in commodities takes place. It is similar to an Equity market, but
instead of buying or selling shares one buys or sells commodities.
Commodity markets began with the trading of agricultural products,
such as wheat, corn, cattle, etc. in the 19th century.
3. COMMODITY EXCHANGE An entity, usually an incorporated
association, that determines and enforces rules and procedures for
the trading of commodities and related investments, such as
commodity futures. Commodities exchange also refers to the physical
center where trading takes place.

5. HISTORY In 1872, a group of Manhattan Diary Merchants formed
the Butter and Cheese Exchange. Subsequently, egg traders joined
and the exchange was renamed as Butter, Cheese and Egg
Exchange.
6. In 1933, the Commodity Exchange(COMEX)was established
through the merger of four small exchanges the National Metal
Exchange, the Rubber Exchange of New York, the National Raw Silk
Exchange, and the New York Hide Exchange.
7. On August 3, 1994, New Yorks two largest exchanges, the New

10. CHICAGO MERCANTILE EXCHANGE (CME) The Chicago Mercantile
Exchange (CME) (often called "the Chicago Merc", or "the Merc") is
an American financial and commodity derivative exchange based in
Chicago and located at 20 S. Wacker Drive. The CME was founded in
1898 as the Chicago Butter and Egg Board, an agricultural
commodities exchange.
11. Originally, the exchange was a non-profit organization. The
Merc demutualized in November 2000, went public in December 2002,
and merged with the Chicago Board of Trade in July 2007 to become a
designated contract market of the CME Group Inc., which operates
both markets. The chief executive officer of CME Group is Phupinder
Gill, Terrence A. Duffy is the president and executive chairman of
the board, and Leo Melamed is chairman emeritus.
12. CONT. On August 18, 2008, shareholders approved a merger
with the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) and COMEX. The Merc,
CBOT, NYMEX and COMEX are now markets owned by the CME Group.
Today, the Merc trades several types of financial instruments:
interest rates, equities, currencies, and commodities.
13. It also offers trading in alternative investments, such as
weather and real estate derivatives, and has the largest options
and futures contracts open interest (number of contracts
outstanding) of any futures exchange in the world. Trading is
conducted in two methods; an open outcry format and the CME Globex
electronic trading platform. Approximately 80 percent of total
volume at the exchange occurs electronically on CME Globex.

15. CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE (CBT) The Chicago Board of Trade
(CBOT), established in 1848, is the world's oldest futures and
options exchange. More than 50 different options and futures
contracts are traded by over 3,600 CBOT members through open outcry
and electronic trading. Volumes at the exchange in 2003 were a
record breaking 454 million contracts.
16. CONTD On 12 July 2007, the CBOT merged with the Chicago
Mercantile Exchange (CME) to form the CME Group, a CME/Chicago
Board of Trade Company. CBOT and three other exchanges (CME, NYMEX,
and COMEX) now operate as designated contract markets (DCM) of the
CME Group. The concerns of U.S. merchants to ensure that there were
buyers and sellers for commodities have resulted into forward
contracts to sell and buy commodities. Still, credit risk remained
a serious problem.
17. CONTD In 1864, the CBOT listed the first ever standardized
"exchange traded" forward contracts, which were called futures
contracts. In 1919, the Chicago Butter and Egg Board, a spin-off of
the CBOT, was reorganized to enable member traders to allow future
trading, and its name was changed to Chicago Mercantile Exchange
(CME). On October 19, 2005, the initial public offering (IPO) of
3,191,489 CBOT shares was priced at $54.00 (USD) per share.
18. CONTD On its first day of trading the stock closed up +49%
at $80.50 (USD) on the NYSE. In 2007, the CBOT and the CME merged
to form the CME Group. In 2012, the CBOT expanded electronic
trading hours to 22 hours per day to become more competitive in the
industry. The open outcry hours remained the same.
