Expansion of US stock market trading hours

Overview

The availability of US stock trading is expanding to accommodate international investors. Initially, the broker STARTRADER expanded its offerings by launching 48 new US stock CFDs on MT5 servers, providing extended trading hours from Monday 03:00 to Friday 23:55 (GMT+3) to assist clients in the Gulf and Asia.

Following this, major US exchanges including the NYSE Group and Nasdaq announced plans to expand trading to 23 hours per day starting December 6. This new schedule will feature a night session from 21:00 to 04:00, with a one-hour maintenance break. This shift is intended to benefit Asia-Pacific investors, particularly in Japan and South Korea, by allowing more direct trading of individual US stocks during their local daytime.
