U.S. stock options open late at night! Will we enter true 24-hour trading in the future?

If development continues along the current trend.
A fully 24-hour U.S. stock market in the future is not impossible.
In fact, many institutions have already begun preparing for this.
The reason is simple.
Capital doesn't like to wait.
Waiting means opportunity cost.
So trading hours are continuously extended.
Of course, this is convenient for global funds.
But does the market really need to never rest?
There is controversy over the answer.
Supporters believe it leads to higher efficiency.
Opponents believe it causes greater volatility.
Both sides have valid points.
Because as price discovery efficiency improves,
Emotional transmission efficiency also increases.
In the past, a piece of news would ferment for several hours.
In the future, it might be priced within minutes.
This means the market reacts faster.
And also means mistakes are made more quickly.
For ordinary investors,
The most critical issue is not how long the market is open,
But whether their investment framework is mature.
Without rules,
a 24-hour market equals 24-hour risk.
With rules,
a 24-hour market simply offers more opportunities.
In the future, Wall Street will become faster and faster.
Investors will need to learn patience even more.
