NASDAQ currently holds three trading sessions on weekdays: a pre-market session from 4 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. ET, a regular session from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., and a post-market session that extends until 8:00 p.m. ET. NASDAQ aims to extend its trading hours as Wall Street prepares for 24/7 stock trading. NASDAQ, one of the world's largest exchanges, which includes major tech companies like NVIDIA, Apple, and Amazon, plans to formally apply to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Monday to launch 24-hour stock trading. This move is intended to capitalize on the increasing global demand for U.S. stocks. The exchange also plans to expand its stock and product trading hours from 16 to 23 hours on weekdays.
