This is way over my head, but it's the former Chicago Mercantile Exchange, which is now partnering with FanDuel to sell legally-murkey "sports event contracts." Apparently a way to get around state sports betting laws??

For the record, anyone who wants to participate in these so called "prediction market" realize there is zero market regulation and consumer protection built into these.  Unlike say a real futures market, or sports betting, there is no clear legal regulatory entity which oversees these items, and it is pretty much the wild west, complete with unfettered market manipulation that cannot currently be stopped.

A futures exchange that dates back to the 1840s. It is a Chicago institution at least, predating modern Chicago.  They could have done worse here

 

Oh… duh 😆
