Bruce Markets to launch industry-first 24/7 US equity trading ecosystem

The initiative includes investments from PEAK6 Investments and Robinhood Markets and will also leverage technology from Nasdaq and Apex Fintech Solutions.  

Bruce Markets has entered an agreement to expand its current extended trading hours offering on Bruce ATS, to enable US equity trading throughout the weekend.

The expanded model – which is subject to regulatory review – aims to bring continuous 24/7 stock trading to the global investor market and is set to launch over the next few months.  

The initiative will mark the first ever round-the-clock US equity trading ecosystem to be available for global investors and has also attracted strategic investments from PEAK6 Investments – the majority shareholder – as well as Robinhood Markets.  

Moreover, the expansion will leverage Nasdaq’s trading technology, as well as clearing, carrying and custody capabilities from Apex Fintech Solutions’ subsidiary, Apex Clearing Corporation.  

Jason Wallach, chief executive of Bruce Markets, commented: “We are changing the way customers can access US equities and finally ushering in true 24/7 trading. Market-moving news does not wait for Monday’s open, and soon, neither will investors. Together with our partners, we are breaking down the limitations of traditional market structure and redefining how the world trades.”

Currently, Bruce Markets operates overnight US equities trading venue Bruce ATS, which runs its overnight trading session from 8pm to 4pm ET, Sunday through Friday.   

Apex Fintech Solutions, Fidelity Investments, Nasdaq Ventures, NH Investment & Securities, tastytrade and Webull also serve as investors in the offering.  

“The world doesn’t take weekends off, and now neither will the markets,” added Jenny Just, co-founder and managing partner at PEAK6 Investments. 

“This is the end of the five-day market. For the first time, markets will keep moving with the people, and Bruce Markets is here to lead that change.” 

Enabling around-the-clock trading has been a core focus for Bruce Markets in recent months, and in August 2026, ABN AMRO Clearing US expanded its 24/5 US equity offering to include client access to Bruce Markets.  

The integration is expected to enhance ABN AMRO’s ability to support around-the-clock trading and provide the firm’s global client base with tools to overcome liquidity access challenges in these markets.
