Z. Lou Guttman

__NOTOC__ 
Z. Lou Guttman was chairman of the New York Mercantile Exchange from 1988 to 1993. He died in January of 2016.
== Background ==
The son of Jewish-Hungarian emigres, Guttman was born in 1949 and came to New York in 1956 with his younger sister. After graduating from Baruch College, he took a job at a New York accounting firm but soon left it to join a stock brokerage called Commonwealth Securities. He worked in the back office, eventually saving enough money to buy a seat at the NYMEX. He became chairman of the NYMEX 10 years later.
As chairman, he was instrumental in keeping the exchange open after the bombing of the World Trade Center in 1993, when other businesses in the buildings around the Trade Center were forced to close.
In 1993, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission filed a complaint against Guttman, then the chairman of NYMEX, accusing him of illegal trades in 1989 that raised about $19 million to cover trading debts. The CFTC charged his firm, Gerald Inc., and several brokers of noncompetitive, or prearranged, trades. Gerald Inc. paid a $65,000 penalty without affirming or denying the allegations. The alleged trades were executed on the New York Coffee, Sugar & Cocoa Exchange, not the NYMEX. Guttman wasn't accused of illegal trades himself, but of supervising an account that his then-partner allegedly used illegally. He was eventually banned from trading for five years.
Following the scandal, the NYMEX board asked Guttman to quit but he refused. When the board nominating committee passed him over as a candidate for reelection, he got signatures from 50 of the exchange's 700+ voting members to get on the ballot, but the nominating committee selected Daniel Rappaport, and Rappaport became the next chairman.
After his tenure as chairman, Guttman was known as the man behind the NYMEX Advocate, a newsletter that kept fellow members informed about what was happening with the exchange.
== Education ==
Guttman graduated from Baruch College in New York City.

ZCE Hard White Winter Wheat

ZCE hard white winter wheat futures trade on the Zhengzhou Commodity Exchange (ZCE). They were launched on February 1, 2000, in compliance with the National Standard for Wheat GB1351-1999. Wheat futures had already been listed on the ZCE prior to February 1, 2000, but back then there was no specification, such as hard white winter wheat, etc. 
Currently, China is the world’s top wheat producer.
Each ZCE hard white winter wheat futures contract represents 10 tons of deliverable 2nd grade hard winter white wheat, which is defined in accordance with the new National Standard for Wheat GB1351-2008, while substitutions at differentials that meet ZCE delivery rules are also good for delivery, and its delivery date is set as the first to last trading day of the contract month.

Although ZCE hard white winter wheat futures contract complies with the National Standard for Wheat, for that very reason, it lacks price volatility and at the same time both its commercial usage and definition of delivery eligibility are not quite clear, and as a result, its sister contract, ZCE strong gluten wheat futures has far larger trading volume. In 2008, ZCE hard white winter wheat futures traded only 328,418 contracts (+538.47 percent YOY) and its turnover amounted to 6 billion yuan (+600 percent YOY), compared with ZCE strong gluten wheat futures' 55,017,028 contracts and 1,140.7 billion yuan, respectively.
Effective March 24, 2008, the ZCE announced that it would relax the delivery conditions for hard white winter wheat futures contract starting June 2008, making not only first- and second-grade but also lower grade white winter wheats eligible for delivery, upon the introduction of the new National Standard for Wheat GB1351-2008. Thereafter, volume seems to have picked up somewhat, with 12,370 contracts traded in April 2008, up 64.6% over April 2007.

Each ZCE PTA futures contract is subject to a margin rate equivalent to 6 percent of contract value (e.g., 2601 yuan = 8670 yuan [TA807 last price on May 22, 2008] x 5 [tons/contract] x 6 percent) as well as a trading fee of 4 yuan (RMB) / contract.

ZCE Strong Gluten Wheat

ZCE strong gluten wheat futures trade on the Zhengzhou Commodity Exchange (ZCE). They were launched on March 28, 2003. 
Currently, China is the world’s top wheat producer.
Each ZCE strong gluten wheat futures contract represents 10 tons of deliverable 2nd grade strong gluten wheat, which is defined in accordance with Exchange standard Q/ZSJ001-2003, while substitutions at differentials that meet ZCE delivery rules are also good for delivery, and its delivery date is set as the first to last trading day of the contract month.

Unlike its sister contract, ZCE hard white winter wheat futures, ZCE strong gluten wheat futures are far more actively traded, primarily because its commercial usage and definition of delivery eligibility are quite clear and because price volatility is relatively large due to a smaller amount of strong gluten wheat available for delivery. In 2008, ZCE strong gluten wheat futures traded 55,017,028 contracts (-29.43 percent YOY) and its turnover amounted to 1,140.7 billion yuan (-24.59 percent YOY), making it the second most actively traded (in terms of volume)on ZCE after ZCE sugar futures.
