CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE TO PROVIDE FREE DJIA FUTURES QUOTES
The Chicago Board of Trade announced today it will provide real-time price
quotes on its DJIA futures and futures options contracts free of charge to
vendors and customers effective immediately.
The move to provide the quotes free for a period of time was approved by the
CBOT Board of Directors at its meeting Tuesday.
CBOT Chairman David P. Brennan said, "Providing live DJIA quotes to CBOT
vendors and customers free of charge will increase market-user awareness of
the opportunities provided through the CBOT Dow complex. Today's financial
markets must be responsive to customer needs. Just as brokerages are
offering on-line services and providing quotes on their internet sites, we
will provide instant and free Dow futures quotes in order to increase member
opportunity and expand our following of index traders."
CBOT President & CEO Thomas R. Donovan said, "As a global market which
trades the benchmark equity, interest rate and agricultural products, the
CBOT is committed to providing the most accessible and informative market
information in the world. By providing free Dow futures and futures-options
quotes, we are acting on our commitment to serve customers, provide member
opportunity and build on the success of our products."
