    April 13, 2026, 11:47 AM EDT. Standard and Poor's Global Inc (SPGI) saw new options start trading for the October 16th expiration, featuring 186 days until expiry.

On the call side, the $430 strike call bid at $32 offers a covered call yield of 10.20% if exercised, though it caps upside gains. These new contracts provide investors various strategic choices based on market views and risk appetite.
