Robinhood Markets Inc on Tuesday unveiled extended trading hours for its brokerage platform, building on the company’s aim to make investing more accessible for all.

What Happened

Robinhood announced that it’s working toward offering 24/7 investing for its customers. In a first-step effort toward around-the-clock investing, Robinhood has launched new extended trading hours that allow customers to trade from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. ET.

Robinhood previously offered trading from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. ET. In total, the company added four hours of trading time for Robinhood users. It seems the move comes as a response to customer demand.
