Happy 18th Birthday Globex!




It was 18 years ago (next week) when Globex was launched in the cake cutting ceremony seen above. Note that it originally involved the CBOT as seen by representative executives from there but eventually the CBOT went their separate way from Globex, only to return to it over a decade later. The photo came from a SunTimes file archive that I purchased.
