The American Nasdaq stock exchange wants to extend its opening hours to 23 hours a day on weekdays, according to an application with the American Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Today, the Nasdaq Stock Exchange is open for normal trading between 9:30 a.m. and 4 p.m. In addition, the exchange is open for pre- and post-market trading.

The new thing is that trading will also take place between 9 pm and 4 am, American Eastern Time.

The larger New York Stock Exchange has also previously announced that it plans to remain open 24 hours a day.
