Is the long term trend higher?
-YoY July volumes ICE vs. CME-
Energy:
ICE: -9% 
CME: -22%
Ags & Metals:
ICE: -8%
CME: -4%
Financials:
ICE: -33%
CME: -20%
CME wins 2 out of 3 but a sluggish month for futures overall.

Good question. Energy - yes. Globalization (especially nat gas) and new products make long term positive. Ags & metals - kind of. Long term driver is greater demand for crops/food. Financials - unclear. Low rates for longer muddies the outlook but new products could offset.
