Products highlights


FTSE Index derivatives


Last month, U.K. equities rebounded as clearer policy signals and improving domestic conditions brought more clarity to investors. Headline inflation came slightly higher in June versus May, yet the Bank of England left rates unchanged, and markets, however, still anticipate further cuts later in the year.

Against this backdrop, the commodity heavy FTSE 100 Index gained 4.2% for the month as it benefited from supportive commodity prices and strong earnings from energy and financial companies. Meanwhile, FTSE 250 Index was modestly up 1.6%.

Year-to-date, the FTSE 100 Index and FTSE 250 Index are respectively up 11.7% and 6.5%, reflecting resilient performance despite shifting macro conditions.

  • FTSE 100 Index Futures YTD Average Daily Volume (ADV) of 93k lots, representing £8.6 billion in notional daily volume; Open Interest (OI) at 400k lots, totalling £36.8 billion in notional value.
  • FTSE 100 Index options YTD ADV of 26k lots, representing £2.4 billion in notional daily volume; OI at 1.1 million lots or £100 billion in notional value.
  • FTSE 250 Index Futures YTD ADV of 2.6k lots with end of month OI of £0.95 billion or 21k lots.

MSCI Index derivatives


July was another strong month for global equities on the back of progress on U.S. trade agreements and large-cap earnings. The MSCI ACWI PR USD Index gained 1.3%, reaching a series of new highs. This strength reflected investors optimism around trade agreements between the U.S. and its partners; as well as mega-cap technology firms posting strong results. International developed markets underperformed last month with the MSCI EAFE PR USD Index down 1.5%.

Emerging markets ended the month in positive territory with the MSCI EM PR USD Index gaining 1.7%, helped by a 4.8% rally in Chinese equities and supportive commodity prices, though manufacturing data pointed to a potential slowdown of economic output across Asia. The U.S. dollar Index meanwhile was up 3.2%, reflecting a stronger dollar.
