Wasn’t Robert Shiller going to create house price derivatives for this purpose? Wonder what happened with that… I vaguely recall markets turned out to be too local

They were created, listed at the CME, and never traded. Same story for the vast majority of new product listings attempted. What makes for an active market is a fun thing to think about

Tx! My recollection is that Shiller’s original idea was that they should be a product for regular folks… which would mean repackaging them as mutual funds or ETFs you could hold in a 401(k) or something. Regular folks don’t have futures accounts (for better or worse…)
