Coin World News reports that on July 20, the Financial Times stated that the London Stock Exchange Group is considering whether to launch 24-hour trading. Due to the growing demand from small investors, who are also very active outside of normal working hours, exchanges are competing to extend stock trading hours. Sources indicate that the London Stock Exchange Group is studying the feasibility of extending trading hours, including the necessary technology and regulatory implications. One person stated that the London Stock Exchange is 'indeed seriously considering this matter, whether it be 24-hour trading or extended trading hours,' adding that the exchange group is engaging in 'significant business, policy, and regulatory discussions' on this 'persistent issue.' Another informed source noted that this exploration is part of a broader discussion about potential new products and services. [Coin World News]
