Average daily contract volume increased to 29.445 million in the third quarter of 2026 from 25.322 million in the prior-year quarter. CME Group attributed higher activity to persistent inflationary pressure, geopolitical uncertainty and disruption, and volatility across interest rate, equity, foreign exchange, energy, agricultural commodity, and metals markets. The filing says these conditions contributed to increased volumes in both the third quarter and first nine months of 2026.
