President George W. Bush at CME (March 6, 2001).

The Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) (NYSE:CME) was founded 1898 as a not-for-profit organization. CME demutualized in November 2000, and went public in December 2002. Today, CME is the biggest futures market in the United States.

CME has four major product areas: interest rates, stock indexes, foreign exchange and commodities.

CME has the largest futures and options on futures open interest (number of contracts outstanding) of any exchange in the world, which indicates a very high liquidity, a key success factor for stock and commodity exchanges.

CME Globex®

Today the CME Globex trading system operates at the heart of CME. It was introduced in 1992 as the first global electronic trading platform for futures and derivative contracts .

Full details are at CME.com.

Science kits, science lessons, science toys, maths toys, hobby kits, science games and books - these are some of many products that can help give your kid an edge in their science fair projects, and develop a tremendous interest in the study of science. When shopping for a science kit or other supplies, make sure that you carefully review the features and quality of the products. Compare prices by going to several online stores. Read product reviews online or refer to magazines.

Start by looking for your science kit review or science toy review. Compare prices but remember, Price $ is not everything. Quality does matter.
