Record-Breaking Volume for Month of November at the KCBT
During the month of November, the Kansas City Board of Trade HRW wheat futures contract and the exchange as a whole broke all previous November monthly volume records.   The previous record for HRW wheat futures was 602,081 contracts in 2010. The previous record for total exchange volume was 624,481 contracts, also in 2010.
