Is silver futures about to expand again? Is this institution trying to accumulate shares or are they genuinely optimistic about precious metals...

Wait, the 100-ounce specification is kind of interesting, much smaller than the current ones.
---
If it goes live on February 9th, it depends on how the regulators approve it. There probably won't be any major issues this time.
---
It's just an excuse for diversification strategies, actually just trying to lure more retail investors in.
---
The popularity of precious metals futures has indeed increased recently. CME's intuition is still sharp.
---
Why does it feel like all exchanges are desperately launching new products? Is there really enough liquidity?
---
Silver has always been lukewarm before, so is it about to take off? I remain skeptical.
---
Institutions are positioning in precious metals, and the macro environment is indeed changing. We should pay attention to this signal.
