Some Fun Scenarios, FAQs & Making Sense of CME Group Stock Movements:

Question 1: Is the price forecast for CME Group stock higher after a drop?

Answer:

Consider two situations,

Case 1: CME Group stock drops by -5% or more in a week

Case 2: CME Group stock rises by 5% or more in a week

Is the price forecast for CME Group stock higher over the subsequent month after Case 1 or Case 2?

CME stock fares better after Case 1, with an expected return of 9.7% over the next month (21 trading days) under Case 1 (where the stock has just suffered a 5% loss over the previous week), versus, an expected return of 0.6% for Case 2. This implies a price forecast of $218 in Case 1 and a figure of $200 in Case 2 using CME market price of $198.43 on 9/28/2021.

In comparison, the S&P 500 has an expected return of 3.1% over the next 21 trading days under Case 1, and an expected return of just 0.5% for Case 2 as detailed in our dashboard that details the expected return for the S&P 500 after a rise or drop.

The expected return after a rise is understandably lower than after a drop as detailed in the previous question.
