CME Group Expands 24/7 Trading to 100-Ounce Silver Futures

CME Group has announced plans to expand 24/7 trading to its 100-ounce silver futures contract, subject to regulatory review. This move follows the launch of round-the-clock trading in its 1-ounce gold futures on July 24.

Since then, more than 53,000 contracts have traded during the newly added weekend sessions, with a notional value of about $219 million, according to CME Group.

The 100-ounce silver futures contract was launched in February 2026 and recorded an average daily volume of 17,800 contracts in the first half of 2026, CME Group said.
