Top Gold Stocks To Buy For 2019: CME Group Inc.(CME)
Advisors' Opinion:- [By Chris Hill]
Gross: I got CME Group (NASDAQ:CME), ticker CME. Operates the world's largest futures and options exchange. They're in a great position to either innovate or acquire assets to grow. They take a little toll for every transaction that goes across their platform. Institutions managing risk, derivatives are more important than ever, which is good for their business. They pay a 3.6% yield, including a special dividend that they typically pay on an annual basis. Trading volumes are skyrocketing. The business is strong.
