CBOE:CBOECboe Global Markets, Inc. Analysis

Cboe Global Markets is trading at $286.11, just below its 20‑day SMA of $289.29 but comfortably above the 50‑day SMA of $274.79, indicating a short‑term pullback within a longer‑term bullish framework. The RSI sits at 49.4, suggesting neutral momentum, while the MACD histogram is negative and the signal line is bearish, pointing to modest downside pressure in the near term.
Fundamentally, the firm posted 8.7% revenue growth, a robust operating margin of 36%, and free cash flow of $1.27 B, supporting a sustainable dividend yield of 0.93% with a modest 26% payout ratio. However, the current price exceeds the DCF fair value of $248.28 and trades at a PE of 27.5 versus an industry average of 17.4, marking the stock as overvalued.
Recent material news highlights the launch of cash‑settled Russell 2000 options and expanded 24‑hour trading windows, alongside an earnings beat (EPS $2.99 vs. $2.93 estimate) and the declaration of the Q1 2026 dividend. These catalysts reinforce CBOE’s growth narrative, yet the high 30‑day volatility of 26% and a beta near zero suggest price swings may continue, warranting a cautious stance.
