Scott Olson CME Group ( CME ) will launch options on Eris SOFR swap futures on June 16, 2026, providing investors with a way to manage U.S. dollar interest rate risk more precisely, the company said Tuesday. The introduction is subject to pending regulatory review. "Eris SOFR swap options will complement our existing interest rate product suite, which delivers deep liquidity, price transparency, and unmatched margin efficiencies to global market participants," said Agha Mirza , CME Group global head of Rates and OTC Products. Eris SOFR Swap futures replicate interest rate swap cash flows, offering the standardization and capital savings of exchange-traded instruments, CME said. Adding options on two-year, five-year, and 10-year Eris SOFR Swap futures will support more sophisticated hedging strategies, such as managing non-linear risk in mortgage-backed portfolios, it added. Michael Riddle, CEO of Eris Innovations, commented, "By mirroring the structure of forward-premium OTC swaptions, Eris SOFR Swap options can deliver cost optimization, margin efficiencies, and trading simplicity amid shifting economic conditions." The new options add to CME Group's ( CME ) interest rate market offerings, spanning futures and options for a broad range of benchmark products, including U.S. Treasuries, SOFR, Fed Funds,TBAs, and credit, among others. Its U.S. Treasury and SOFR contracts trade side-by-side on the CME Globex platform with BrokerTec cash securities.

When it comes to the best noise-canceling earbuds, the competition has gotten fierce. Apple, Sony, Samsung, and Google all offer excellent options, though, unsurprisingly, Bose still retains the noise-canceling crown with the latest QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds . Luckily, you can now grab the second-gen earbuds at Amazon and Best Buy for $249 ($50 off), which matches their second-best price to date. Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds (2nd Gen) Where to Buy: $299 $249 at Amazon $299 $249 at Best Buy $299 $249.99 at Target While the QC Ultra Earbuds (2nd Gen) aren’t a massive step up from the first-gen model, at least visually, they make noticeable strides in both sound and call quality. They still lean a little bass-heavy, but the high-end is clear and lively, whether you’re listening to the stock sound or fine-tune your preferences using the three-band EQ located in the Bose app. They also come with a wireless charging case and continue to support Immersive Audio, which is similar to Apple’s spatial audio in that it can add greater depth when listening to select content. The ANC tech is where the latest Ultra Earbuds truly shine, though, particularly if you’re someone who likes to adjust the intensity. The wireless earbuds feature 11 steps, from full on to full off, which you can lock in with your own presets, whether for running or your commute. They’re fantastic at drowning out low-frequency sounds and loud spikes in sound, too, even when using Bose’s helpful transparency mode (aka Aware mode), making it easy to better focus on your conversation and everything else going on around you when you need to.

SlavkoSereda/iStock via Getty Images A U.S.-sanctioned tanker linked to China that was being watched as one of the first vessels to test President Trump's naval blockade apparently has U-turned after sailing out of the Strait of Hormuz and into the Gulf of Oman, Bloomberg reported Tuesday. The vessel Rich Starry was blacklisted by the U.S. in 2023 for helping Iran evade energy sanctions and has a history of spoofing its satellite signals, according to TankerTrackers.com, which monitors vessels using satellite data. Another tanker, the Elpis , was in the strait and headed into the Gulf of Oman just as the blockade began; ship-tracking platforms Kpler and Vortexa indicate the vessel docked at an Iranian port in the gulf before attempting to pass through Hormuz, meaning it could be a potential target for the U.S. naval patrol. The Elpis paused its journey at roughly the same location that Rich Starry turned around, although it has not broadcast a signal for several hours, meaning it could have carried on its journey or turned back. " During the first 24 hours, no ships made it past the U.S. blockade and six merchant vessels complied with direction from U.S. forces to turn around to re-enter an Iranian port on the Gulf of Oman," U.S. Central Command said. China called the U.S. blockade of Iranian ports a " dangerous and irresponsible " move. Benchmark crude oil futures fell sharply on Tuesday as signs of a possible resumption in talks to end the Iran war eased supply concerns stemming from the blockade. Front-month Nymex crude ( CL1:COM ) for May delivery down 5.9% to $93.23/bbl and front-month Brent crude ( CO1:COM ) for June delivery down 4.4% to $88.86/bbl.

The MoD shows little sign of learning from its mistakes – no wonder the Treasury is reluctant to agree to its demands George Robertson, Tony Blair’s first defence secretary, a former Nato secretary general and an author last year of the latest in a series of evasive strategic defence reviews, accused Keir Starmer on Tuesday of a “corrosive complacency towards defence”. He said the prime minister was not willing to make the “necessary investment”. Lord Robertson could have directed his fire elsewhere. He must know that no government department has been so complacent in the face of years of devastating evidence of waste, profligate contracts, and policy decisions that have avoided confronting new but increasingly clear security threats to Britain and other western countries.
