Nasdaq to launch 23-hour trading on Dec. 6

The exchange’s plan aims to capture overseas retail and institutional order flow, boosting related clearing fees and demand for real-time Nasdaq pricing data.

Nasdaq plans to roll out a near-24/7 trading schedule starting Dec. 6, with the goal of capturing international liquidity that has historically been constrained by time-zone limits in U.S. equities trading, according to MarketBeat Ratings.

The move is designed to give investors in London, Tokyo, and Singapore more real-time participation in U.S. markets instead of relying on fragmented off-exchange products or delayed execution.

MarketBeat Ratings says expanding trading hours could increase transaction volume, which would flow into higher clearing fees, and raise global broker demand for real-time U.S. pricing and premium market data feeds.

The article frames the rollout as more than an hours adjustment, positioning Nasdaq to serve as a central marketplace for cross-border capital flow during periods when U.S. equities would otherwise be dormant.
