It will be 23/5. Not 24/7 like the tweet says



quote:

Nasdaq plans to expand stock and exchange-traded product trading to 23 hours a day, five days a week, according to a filing.

The move follows similar initiatives by the New York Stock Exchange and reflects growing global demand for extended market access.

Always-on cryptocurrency trading has influenced investor expectations, with Nasdaq acknowledging that many of its clients are already active overnight.

Nasdaq is looking to enable nearly round-the-clock trading, aiming to match the increasingly global nature of financial markets and investor behavior, according to a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)

Under the proposal, Nasdaq would expand trading hours for stocks and exchange-traded products (ETPs) from 16 hours to 23 hours per day, five days a week. The new schedule would include a day session from 4 a.m. to 8 p.m. ET, followed by a one-hour break, and then a night session running from 9 p.m. to 4 a.m. ET the following day. The trading week would begin on Sunday at 9 p.m. and close on Friday at 8 p.m., with the existing opening and closing bells at 9:30 a.m. and 4 p.m. remaining unchanged, according to the filing.

I know the whole point is everyone is pushing for it to collect more fees.

I think the normal process where momentum is sort of cooled and people reset for the next day is good for stability.

I really see no benefits... But once again this is all about fees. They want more

Is your goal to get a thread in every forum, every day?

This is strictly for trading houses to make more fees? Seems like a good way to make an already volatile market exponentially worse.

The markets close WAY too early. I don't need 23/5 but the current banking hours suck.

Looking up the moves of the market recently and like over 75% of all moves is AH /Overnight trading. This levels that out some.

I wouldn't mind extended through 5-6 pm...but that's about all I see as needed.


I'm sure this will just drive up fund manager fees as well.

Huh? They would still have “normal” trading hours. This would just extend the pre/post market trading.

Doubt it. Liquidity in pre/post market is limited and this won’t change that. Funds will still trade the vast majority of their shares during normal hours.

Financial advisors around the country just went HO-LEE-FUK
God speed to all financial advisors if this passes. Their phones will ring/ping 24/7...or 23/7. I think this will cause people to want to panic sell even more than they already do.

Why the downvotes?

Opening at 930ET and closing at 4PM ET is an unnecessarily tight window.

Suppose you have ____% in nasdaq related investments. Do you really want to have to pay attention to how they’re performing for 23 hours a day?


ETA - After reviewing the details, I realize this is simply an expansion of the existing pre/post-market framework, which alleviates my initial concerns.

Sounds favorable to the current system where I watch a stock plummet after hours, and I’m forced to watch helplessly until the market opens the next day.

Yeah the current system surely hasn’t worked out over the long term for investors…

That's certainly a take. How about you having the option to do (or not do) something about it?
If you don't want to, you won't have to.

I would prefer to not have to feel obligated to deal with it or be concerned about having to do anything with it for up to 23 hours a day.

Personally, I think a break in the markets is better for less market volatility. With the markets opened 23 hours a day I think things are liable to spiral out of control. We will hit circuit breakers on a more regular basis than the current system. The break in each day gives people, investors, institutional investors time to pause and realize the sky is not actually falling
