Eurostoxx dividend futures see trading frenzy

December 20 contracts drop 39% in March

More than two million Eurostoxx 50 index dividend futures have changed hands in March to date, almost double the previous monthly record, as traders react to the shutdown of the eurozone economy due to the spreading coronavirus.

Data from Eurex Exchange shows turnover of 2,078,776 for its flagship index dividend product to March 25 – almost twice the 1,099,812 posted for the whole of February and the previous record of 1,236,421 in October 2018.
