After testing the expanded 6-digit GLOBEX trade Ids with selected firms and firms service bureaus earlier this month, we�ve postponed the implementation date from June 1, 2001 to July 2, 2001. This decision was made to accommodate the firms� requests for additional time needed to make programming changes.

If you have any questions concerning this decision, please contact Mahmoud Ajamia at (312) 634 1595 or email majamia@cme.com
