Quite the occas. The President of the United States rang the bells jointly for NASDAQ and NYSE remotely for the first time in history, both running together from the White House. Even Taylor Swift's wedding didn't manage this. Then again, Tay Tay didn't create a new tier of savings accounts for babies either.

  Speaker A: Meanwhile, over at CME alongside their Trimby futures, they're going to be launching single stock futures on July 27. In other words, where One Chicago failed, of which CME was a founder shareholder, they're now going to go it alone with the stock indicator Individual Share Future product, of which I was a huge advocate some 30 years ago, back in the day when only Hong Kong exchanges were looking at it. ICE are launching more compute futures as competition intensifies in the age of AI. In this case it's ISON Native X. That means they're launching energy normalized compute futures which contrast with the ORMN GPU compute futures contracts also coming to ICE amongst a myriad of other compute futures, the US as it was approaching its 250th birthday last weekend, was a powerful economy, a massively powerful economy. Over in the historical lands that created the EU itself but have since lost touch with their principles of liberty, egalitarian fraternity, the European Union, industry bodies and markets are seeking competition. The tragedy is, I doubt that Brussels Blob, underpinned by the ludicrous precautionary principle, even comprehend the question. Meanwhile, NASDAQ have been celebrating a sensational first half 2026 while the Indian court bowled somewhat of a googly. That's a cricket term, not relig to search engine optimization about how NSE is in fact somewhat government controlled. Interesting to see how that impacts on the ipo. Meanwhile, in Terra Australis, which is Latin shorthand I believe, for land of dismal management and failed market monopoly, the courts were spot on, applying what was admittedly a fairly derisory traffic fine of 20.5 million Australian dollars for ASX being perma shabby and frankly ASIC gutless in ultimately fining pocket change for a company which has cost the market a billion dollars or more and heaven know an economic penalty for the ASX's ongoing failure as a service over a generation Meanwhile, the Dar es Salaam Stock Exchange they celebrated 30 years of existence earlier this week. Their market capitalization now stands at $13.49 billion with 870,000 investors and US$607.51 million of cash mobilized through equity issuances in Tanzanian dollars. Over in prediction markets, usual issues, lots of sues, lots of litigation. Kalshi on the other hand, according to Integrity Research, their attempt had failed. Wall street needs workable compliance for prediction markets and according to that correspondent Calci has not delivered yet. Other people also making their concerns about that and indeed Garbage Day. What an interesting crazy name. Crazy title. They spent a month hiding in a Kalshi discord clipping Discord I should say. And the net result was yuk yuk and thrice yuck. It seems that Polymarket who exposed by the Wall Street Journal recently are also doing much the same sorts of things. Somewhat it seems dubious practices of incentivizing influencers who may or may not in many cases actually be trading the prediction markets when they tout huge wins. As I mentioned at the top of the show, NASDAQ delivering their strongest first half in US Exchange history. Their public markets momentum has billed they had the largest IPO, of course, thank you SpaceX and Elon Musk. The highest volume of capital raised in the US Exchange history. Again, thank you Elon Musk. And in total the Note scores were $129.3 billion raised in the first half of 2026, or in other words, roughly 10 times the market capitalization of the entirety of Tanzania. Seven of the 10 largest IPOs of the year listed on NASDAQ as leading companies. NAI, Aerospace and Biotech chose the Nasdaq venue to accelerate growth and indeed NASDAQ Texas has debuted as a new dual listing venue with the first cohort of companies and the inaugural advisory board. A stunning six months for Nasdaq Inc. As the country club duopoly against your clean pair of heels on listings to pre every bourse on earth, bar Hong Kong exchanges, the nse, India moving up, ramping up the progress of the ipo. Not ramping the IPO per se. They're now looking at a September launch for the $3 billion IPO as early as mid August. They look to be on the international trail trying to sell that. That's quite an incredible change from where we thought even six months ago. It would be somewhere into next year before the IPO actually takes place. Canadian Derivatives Clearing Corporation subsidiary of tmx they announced the inaugural subscription of Secured general collateral notes, and LME is considering easing rules to boost Hong Kong as a metals hub.

A MeToo that has raised $250 million plus still looks like a project without a valid business reason. However, it's a win win for Texas as both NYSE and NASDAQ now have hedged their exposure to the loony left New York City mayor and his cohorts and they've hedged them in the in the Lone Star State. The trouble for Texas Exchange is that with the country club duopoly in situ within Governor Greg Abbott's state, the imperative for an independent Texas Stock Exchange has evaporated, thus further reducing what was always a tenuous business case to copycat existing processes. The end aim of various investors to seek to reduce listing FEES, especially for ETFs, Special Product etc's ETPs etc may not prove as successful as has been in Europe, largely because U.S. bors managers have a stronger backbone than than many of their transatlantic cousins in technology. Vermiculous. They're delivering a 24.7clearing system for prediction markets to a leading global crypto exchange, which is great news for another rollout of the very clear clearing solution. BMLL and Exponential have partnered to deliver a new class of investor flow analytics and Hong Kong exchanges are entering into a data licensing agreement with China Bond Pricing center to support CGB futures. Launch another move toward the great Leap forward in RMB yield curve trading beyond the Chinese mainland. Over in Career Path, the Indonesian Stock Exchange shareholders approved the CEO appointment of the interim CEO Jeffrey Hendrick four year term to 2030. MCX appointed Sanjay Rajpal as executive director for five years and Tom Mulwah has taken over as Chairman of the dynamic Nairobi Stock Exchange from Chairman Katone. Meanwhile, in Big World in case you're sipping a suitably caffeinated drink and wondering why your wallet feels lighter, between 2019 and 2026, the cost of a one pound bag of coffee in the USA rose a staggering 130.46% over the course of those seven years. That means it went from $4.17 to $9.61. And on that mysterious and magnificent note, thank you for listening to this EI Weekly Podcast353.
