MSCI Emerging Markets futures, the first electronically traded futures contract to provide

On the first day of trading this contract offered compelling market depth, attractive
bid/asks spreads and initial volume of 154 contracts. To check out this market for

With one contract, capitalize on:
Higher volatility often associated with swift growth.
Volatility of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index has been substantially
higher vs. most other major broad-based indexes, including the S&P 500
and MSCI EAFE indexes -- creating numerous trading opportunities.
Potential for reduced tracking error.
Barron's and other industry pundits have uncovered some of the tracking issues of the
iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF vs. the cash index. Futures tend to offer
low tracking error to the cash index, and E-mini MSCI Emerging Markets
futures should follow suit.
Dedicated market makers.
Market makers have been established with leading firms to facilitate
liquidity and two-sided markets from day one.
