CME Group saw a slight improvement in May volumes, with 6% year-on-year (y-o-y) growth across key asset classes. Foreign exchange volumes fell sharply, weighing heavily on the monthly volumes. However, for the quarter so far, aggregate volumes have been up 13% y-o-y owing to increased volumes across all other asset classes. Going forward, we expect the broad trend to stay in place, as volatility around oil and supply constraints in the commodity market drive energy, commodity and metal volumes higher. As a result, we can expect to see growth in aggregate derivative volumes for CME in the coming months. The table below breaks down the volumes for various asset classes traded on CME’s platform in May, compared to the same period last year:
