Texas Stock Exchange launch

Entities: BlackRock · Charles Schwab · Texas Stock Exchange · Goldman Sachs · Citadel Securities

Overview

In mid‑July 2026 the Texas Stock Exchange (TXSE) opened a new trading venue in Dallas, backed by roughly $275 million from major financial firms and cleared by the SEC. By the end of July the platform was trading every ticker on the National Market System, positioning itself as a direct competitor to the NYSE and Nasdaq and securing about $250 million from more than 80 institutional investors.

On 3 August 2026 TXSE began live trading, marking the first new major U.S. exchange in decades. The venue continues to operate from temporary offices in Uptown Dallas and plans to relocate to the Bank of America Tower, where the Texas Market Center will be housed. Corporate listings are slated to start later in 2026, with IPO activity expected from 2027. TXSE emphasizes Texas’s rapid economic growth, low taxes and job‑creation momentum—coined the “Boom Belt”—as incentives for companies to list on the new platform.
