The Chicago Mercantile Exchange plans to go public this week, becoming the first U.S. financial market to sell stock in itself. The CME is expected to launch its initial stock offering after the close of trading Thursday on the New York Stock Exchange, with initial trading of the stock planned for Friday.
Over the six years of Duffy's tenure CME has embraced electronic trading, gone public, acquired its onetime largest competitor and increased daily volume from 2.2 million to 14 million contracts.
The CME had already come a long way before the merger. After decades of playing second fiddle to the older CBOT, it embraced electronic trading in the 1990s and converted from a member-owned cooperative to a stock corporation.
