The New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) has just announced plans to extend weekday trading hours on its NYSE Arca Equities Exchange to 22 hours a day. The proposed schedule would run from 1:30 AM to 11:30 PM ET on all weekdays, excluding holidays. This extension aims to capitalize on the global demand for U.S. stocks, providing more liquidity compared to the current overnight trading options available on platforms like Interactive Brokers (IB) and Blue Ocean. The extended trading hours will apply to all U.S.-listed stocks, ETFs, and closed-end funds.
