   CME GLOBEX RECAP: Equity markets are lower after a poor session in the U.S.
on Wednesday. This week's bond issue from the U.S. treasury sold poorly in the
market, with rates rising sharply. The yield on the 20-year bond rose to over
5.0%, and that outcome sent U.S. equities sharply lower into the close.
Additionally, there remains concerns about the tax bill moving through
congress, which increases the federal deficit.

   OUTSIDE MARKETS: Previous closes Wednesday showed the Dow Jones Industrial
Average down 816.80 to 41,860.44 and the S&P 500 down 95.85 points to 5,844.61.
The 10-Year Treasury yield ended at 4.481%. Early Wednesday, the June Dow Jones
Futures are down 279 points. European markets are mixed with the spot futures
of London's FTSE 100 trading up 0.04%, spot futures of Germany's DAX are
