The Stakes for the Chicago Exchanges: Eurex and the European Invasion

Chicago has long been the undisputed center of the global futures industry. The Merc and the CBOT have trained generations of traders and have pioneered nearly every aspect of the industry as we know it today. That future is now in doubt. Or, is it? Is Eurex the first crack in Chicago's wall of dominance? Are the accounts of an invasion just hype or indicative of a fundamental shift? Jeremy Grant covers the automotive and futures industries for the Financial Times from his vantage point in downtown Chicago. Join us for an informed discussion of the politics, economics, and egos from a keen observer.
