The expansion includes stocks from the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100, as well as a wide range of ETFs. This follows a successful pilot in 2024 and a February announcement that extended trading hours to these securities [2]. James Kostulias, managing director and head of Trading Services at Charles Schwab, noted that the increased trading flexibility is crucial for investors to capitalize on market-moving news and events that occur outside regular market hours.
The most-traded securities since the launch of 24-hour trading have been Tesla (TSLA), Nvidia (NVDA), and NIO (NIO), highlighting the interest in these companies among global investors [1, 2]. Other highly traded symbols in the overnight session include Microsoft (MSFT), Apple (AAPL), Amazon (AMZN), and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) [2].
The expanded 24-hour trading is part of a broader trend among retail brokers to offer extended trading hours, with competitors like Robinhood (HOOD) and Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) already providing such services [1]. Charles Schwab's move aims to stay competitive and cater to the evolving needs of investors who demand greater flexibility and access to markets.
