Charles Schwab announced on October 30, 2024, plans to significantly expand its 24-hour, five-days-a-week (24/5) trading capabilities. The expansion will include stocks in the S&P 500, Nasdaq-100, and hundreds of additional exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
The company will begin piloting this expanded overnight access with a small group of clients, with a gradual rollout to full client access expected in 2025. This initiative builds on the 24/5 trading pioneered by Ameritrade in 2018, which Schwab acquired in 2020.
This enhancement aims to meet evolving client demand and the dynamics of interconnected global markets, allowing investors greater flexibility to react to market-moving news outside of standard U.S. market hours.
