Single-stock perpetuals gain route onto regulated US commodity venues

CFTC Chair Michael Selig said single-stock perps can now trade on properly registered commodity markets, with venues also filing notice with the SEC to trade security futures, bringing the contracts inside the United States regulatory framework rather than offshore.

Single-stock perpetual futures can now trade on properly registered commodity markets, CFTC Chair Michael Selig said, according to Reuters. The announcement establishes a domestic regulatory route for the contracts.

Registration and SEC notice

The route also requires venues to file notice with the SEC to trade security futures, according to Reuters. Registration as a commodity market is therefore not the only regulatory step identified in Selig’s remarks.

The development brings single-stock perpetual futures within the United States regulatory framework rather than leaving their trading offshore, according to the supplied summary of Reuters’ reporting.

Permission is not a confirmed launch

The report was published on Nov 4, 2026, at 8:45 AM ET. The supplied material identifies the permission to trade and the venue requirements, but names no exchange or individual stock contract.

It also provides no launch date or trading-volume figures. The distinction is between a regulatory pathway being available and evidence that a particular venue has begun trading.

What it means for prediction markets

  • For markets tied to US regulatory access, Selig’s statement supports the availability of a domestic pathway for single-stock perpetual futures.
  • For markets tied to an exchange launch, the supplied reporting does not establish that any named venue has started trading.
  • Resolution criteria matter: permission to trade, commodity-market registration, SEC notice and an actual launch are distinct milestones.
