Cboe Proposes Near 24×5 U.S. Equities Trading by December 2026
- Cboe Global Markets has filed a proposal with the SEC to enable near 24×5 trading on its EDGX exchange starting December 2026.
- The proposed schedule allows trading from Sunday at 9 p.m. to Friday at 8 p.m. Eastern time, with a daily pause between 8 p.m. and 9 p.m., Monday through Thursday.
- Trading would cover all National Market System stocks and be cleared through the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation.
- Global demand, especially from Asia Pacific markets like Hong Kong and Japan, is driving the push for extended trading hours.
- Cboe’s current early morning sessions have seen significant volume growth due to global news impacts.
Cboe Global Markets aims to expand U.S. equities trading hours nearly around-the-clock by December 2026, pending regulatory approval, reflecting increased global demand for access outside traditional market hours.
