10 Expensive Stocks That Are Worth Every Penny

Stock #8 – CME Group (CME)

As an observer of financial markets, I’ve been stunned by the recent growth of options trading. Options and futures trading have become huge among individual investors, and the interest in the topic is only getting bigger. So, who benefits most from the surge in options and futures trading? CME Group (CME).

CME Group is the company that operates the Chicago Mercantile Exchange and the Chicago Board of Trade, the place where options and futures trades actually take place. Whenever you place an options or futures transaction, the only sure winner in the game is CME Group.

As more and more individual investors embrace options and futures trading, CME Group’s bottom line is likely to keep on trucking. CME shares now trade above $300, but they’ve been as high as $710, making this a high-price stock a bargain.
