On February 12, Nate Geraci, president of The ETF Store, posted on social media that Schwab plans to expand the trading hours of retail stocks and ETFs to five days a week, 24 hours a day. Geraci said that this move shows that traditional finance is gradually moving towards the trading model of decentralized finance (DeFi), and may move towards full security tokenization in the long run. Geraci further pointed out that, despite the argument that investors should not be able to trade at any time, the new generation of investors prioritize the accessibility of transactions rather than arbitrary restrictions based on personal opinions.
