    Date 05/06/2018

    On Tuesday, Deutsche Börse announced changes to its selection indices, which will become effective on 18 June 2018.

As of 13 July 2018, STADA will change from the segment Prime Standard into General Standard and therefore no longer fulfils the criteria to remain in the indices. The inclusion of Delivery Hero AG and Puma SE is based on the fast entry rule; both companies are eligible for the index inclusion due to their market capitalisation and order book turnover. MDAX tracks the 50 largest and most liquid companies below DAX.

  • Testimony Of CFTC Chairman J. Christopher Giancarlo Before The Senate Committee On Appropriations Subcommittee On Financial Services And General Government, Washington, D.C.

    Introduction

    Thank you, Chairman Lankford, Ranking Member Coons, and Members of the subcommittee.  I appreciate the opportunity to appear before you today, along with my fellow colleague from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Chairman Jay Clayton.

    For more than a century, Americans have relied on U.S. derivatives markets to stabilize the cost of living.  These markets allow farmers and ranchers to hedge production costs and delivery prices so that consumers can always find plenty of food on grocery store shelves.  They are the reason why American consumers enjoy stable prices, not only in the supermarket, but in all manner of consumer finance from auto loans to household purchases.  Derivatives markets influence the price and availability of heating in American homes, the energy used in factories, the interest rates borrowers pay on home mortgages, and the returns workers earn on their retirement savings.
