关键理由
- BGC Group（BGC.US）出售Water Street Labs与CX Clearinghouse并保留数据和机构市场合作，方向上有战略合作正面叙事。
- 公告未披露交易对价、收入分成、数据产品商业化金额或对BGC利润的量化影响，无法判断相对公司体量的短期增量。
- Fanatics为非上市主体，事件主要受益方更可能是Fanatics自身获得受监管预测市场基础设施，缺少可交易主腿。
主要风险
- 交易仍需交割且公告只给战略表述，若后续披露对价偏低或合作变现慢，BGC短线重定价空间有限。
- 预测市场监管和州级合规约束仍可能影响Fanatics Markets扩张速度。

Fanatics to Acquire Exchange and Clearinghouse from BGC; Parties to Partner on Prediction Markets
Builds a prediction markets ecosystem that serves both retail and institutional participants, bringing together differentiated market expertise and datasets that combine prediction market and financial market intelligence
New York, NY — July 27, 2026 — Fanatics, a global digital sports platform, and BGC Group Inc, (Nasdaq: BGC) (“BGC”), a leading global brokerage and financial technology company servicing financial markets, announced today that they have entered into an agreement for Fanatics to acquire Water Street Labs, LLC and CX Clearinghouse L.P. from BGC. The acquisition of Water Street Labs, a Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) registered Designated Contract Market (DCM), and CX Clearinghouse, L.P., a CFTC registered Derivatives Clearing Organization (DCO), will enable Fanatics to offer its own federally regulated prediction market exchange and expand its prediction market offerings on Fanatics Markets.
By owning its own exchange and clearinghouse, Fanatics Markets will combine its proven expertise in building and scaling consumer-facing platforms with the freedom to directly list and clear prediction markets across an expanding opportunity set to Fanatics’ highly engaged customer base. By harnessing BGC’s expertise in institutional market infrastructure, liquidity, and trading, Fanatics Markets will connect retail-focused prediction markets with the institutional marketplace for the first time.
In addition, Fanatics and BGC will partner to deliver new market data in this growing asset class with BGC contributing its established market data and analytics capabilities to enable the development of new client data products that combine prediction market sentiment with traditional financial market data.
“BGC are experts in the financial services industry and, like Fanatics, have built their business on a foundation of cutting-edge technology, innovation, and exceptional talent,” said Matt King, CEO of Fanatics Betting and Gaming. “Their expertise in building and operating regulated exchanges, clearinghouses, trading technology, and institutional market infrastructure makes them an ideal partner. By combining that institutional foundation with Fanatics’ unmatched understanding of fans and consumer engagement, we have a unique opportunity to accelerate the growth of prediction markets and deliver a best-in-class experience for both retail and institutional participants.”
“This represents an important strategic step for BGC to expand our data and analytics capabilities while combining our institutional expertise with Fanatics’ consumer reach,” said John Abularrage, BGC Co-CEO. “No one knows the sports fan better than Fanatics, and we believe the acquisition of BGC’s DCM and DCO will supercharge Fanatics Markets. Together, we intend to broaden institutional adoption of prediction markets and create innovative data products that unlock new insights for market participants.”
