Investors will soon have another way to bet on the hottest stocks from Nvidia Corp. to SpaceX, without trading a single share.Recommended Video CME Group Inc. will launch single-stock futures Monday, allowing investors to hedge or speculate on more than 50 of the largest US companies. The contracts, offering leverage without the complexity of options, will be cash-settled on the closing price of the stocks they’re tied to. The world’s largest derivatives exchange is betting the rise of retail trading and today’s market environment of hot IPOs with limited share availability will make the single-stock futures — a tool that failed to gain traction in the US after its first first launch 24 years ago — a success this time around.
