Nasdaq has officially filed with the SEC to launch 23-hour stock trading, targeting Q2 2026 (pending approval).
What’s proposed:
Day session: 4am–8pm ET
Night session: 9pm–4am ET
Just a 1-hour daily pause for maintenance
Why it matters:
With $17T in foreign ownership of U.S. stocks and crypto setting the 24/7 standard, global access is becoming non-negotiable.
