Pick a derivatives exchange such as CME Group, Eurex, or the Chicago Board Options Exchange. Go to that exchange's website and try to determine the following:
a. What products the exchange trades.
b. The trading volume in the various products.
c. The notional value traded.
What do you predict would happen to these measures if the notional value of a popular contract were cut in half? (For example, instead of an option being based on 100 shares of stock, suppose it were based on 50 shares of stock.)
