In a joint letter, Cboe, AFME, EBF, EFAMA and EPTA urge policymakers to make mandatory cash equity CCP clearing interoperability a key pillar of MISP to support the creation of “a truly competitive and integrated European capital market,” The TRADE understands.
The structured wind-down of the service has been initiated and follows a “strategic review of Cboe’s risk and markets analytics business,” a Cboe spokesperson tells The TRADE.
The Cboe Predicts suite offers market participants a ‘yes-or-no’ payout, based on the Mini-S&P 500 Index (XSP); Cboe initially announced plans to launch in event prediction markets in its Q4 2025 earnings call.
Cboe has received SEC approval to launch 23/5 US equities trading on its EDGX exchange; move to extend trading hours follows “the strong growth of Cboe’s early market US equities trading sessions,” head of North American equities tells The TRADE.
The new offering – set to launch on 13 July 2026 – will include a pre- and post-market session; builds on recent efforts to expand Cboe’s extended trading hours initiatives in other sectors of its business.
This past week saw several significant moves across the sell-side, outsourced trading, and trading venues.
New global equities head and COO in the US, and a new lead for Europe as industry stalwart departs the business.
The new offering will allow the options to be traded at nearly 24 hours a day, five days a week, to enhance US equity market exposure for global investors.
The decision reflects the firm’s “global strategic shift”; Cboe will work alongside regulators and customers to ensure a smooth transition of the businesses.
