The NYSE American Options Exchange, part of the New York Stock Exchange, has officially launched extended trading hours, providing investors with a new channel to manage risk and capture opportunities before the regular market opens and after it closes.
According to a statement released by the NYSE on Monday, the extended trading session is divided into pre-market and post-market periods: the pre-market session is from 7:30 a.m. to 9:25 a.m. EST, and the post-market session is from 4:00 p.m. to 4:15 p.m.
The first batch of eligible underlying securities includes ETF options tracking assets such as the S&P 500 Index, Russell 2000 Index, and gold, as well as options on companies like Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, Alibaba, TSMC, Alphabet, Amazon, and Oracle.
Kevin Tyrrell, Chief Product Officer of the NYSE, stated that the launch of extended option trading hours is a direct response to market demand and aims to provide investors with investment opportunities and risk management tools within a longer time window.
The NYSE also plans to extend similar arrangements to the stock market in December.
Earlier media reports indicated that the U.S. market is moving toward a trading model with nearly 24-hour stock trading, five days a week. The related arrangements are scheduled to begin in December and will involve multiple trading venues, including Nasdaq and NYSE Arca.
The drivers of this trend include the sustained demand from global investors for U.S. stocks and the need for investors to respond promptly to global market changes outside regular U.S. trading hours.
