Woofun AI reports that the London Stock Exchange intends to establish an independent overnight trading venue, extending market access beyond standard hours. Scheduled for launch in the first half of 2027, the platform will operate from 19:00 to 07:50 the following day, featuring a 30-minute settlement pause between 18:30 and 19:00. The main market will maintain its regular 08:00 to 16:30 schedule. Initial offerings will include exchange-traded products tracking UK and US stock markets. LSE CEO Julia Hoggett stated the initiative targets retail demand, particularly from international investors, amid growing institutional interest in retail order flow.
