Notice Number | Q2008-071
Effective Date | 2008-04-09
CME Group will no longer list Russell 2000 and E-mini Russell 2000 contracts as of the September 29, 2008 quarterly expiration as the result of a licensing decision made by the index provider, Russell Investment Group. To help facilitate an orderly de-listing of these contracts, we will not list July 2008 and August 2008 serial month options on Russell 2000 and E-mini Russell 2000 futures. Currently listings include April, May, June and September 2008 contracts for Russell 2000 and E-mini Russell 2000 options. To maintain the integrity of these contracts, we will continue to add new strike prices in accordance with current Exchange Rules.
