Read MoreHide Full Article
Wall Street analysts forecast that CME Group (CME - Free Report) will report quarterly earnings of $2.57 per share in its upcoming release, pointing to a year-over-year increase of 14.2%. It is anticipated that revenues will amount to $1.55 billion, exhibiting an increase of 15.6% compared to the year-ago quarter.
The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has undergone an upward revision of 2.7% in the past 30 days, bringing it to its present level. This represents how the covering analysts, as a whole, have reassessed their initial estimates during this timeframe.
