New stock exchange aiming to offer 23-hour trading set to launch in 2025

The arrival of the 24X National Exchange is part of a broader push toward a wider window of time for stock trading.

KEY POINTS

24 Exchange, a new stock exchange, announced Wednesday that it will launch next year.
The exchange could eventually offer 23-hours-a-day stock trading, pending final regulatory approval.
The 24X National Exchange will debut in the second half of 2025, with trading from 4:00 a.m. ET to 7:00 p.m. ET on weekdays, the Stamford, Connecticut-based platform said.

A company called 24 exchange, with 23 hours of operation, from 4am to 7pm. 😂
"Just what we needed"
If there's pre-hours trading and post-hours trading then it's already 24 hours. Regular people just aren't rich enough to use it.
Uh, sorry to tell you, but that's not 23 hours. 4 a.m. to 7 p.m. is 15 hours, not 23. I will say, though, that that is better than what we currently have. So, at least it's an improvement.
- That can be expanded to 8:00 p.m. ET on Sunday through 7:00 p.m. ET on Friday, with a one-hour pause each day, once the exchange clears some final hurdles with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
