Nasdaq targets 23-hour trading and tokenized securities
Nasdaq Executive Vice Chairman Edward Knight said the exchange is working toward five days of 23-hour trading per week, with a December 6 launch target described as still on schedule. He also said the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission had approved Nasdaq's proposal to permit trading in tokenized securities. According to Knight, Nasdaq provides technology support to securities exchanges, regulators and financial institutions in more than 50 countries and is applying AI to related products, though the report did not describe those products.
Knight said Nasdaq's infrastructure modernization is intended to improve market efficiency. He also argued that efficient, open and well-functioning equity markets can direct capital toward its most effective uses, reward innovation and finance future development.
