Does anyone know if the US2H will trade after 12-19-01?
Comments from RS (CNBC) in the bond pit after the announcement left me
wondering, when he said that the futures have traded there since 1977. I
wasn't sure if he was implying they would not be trading going forward or
not?
I see there are US2H and US2M trading as of today?
What's the scoop on the futures (and options)?
