Invest In Global Markets To Enhance Your Portfolios

Unlike A-shares and Hong Kong stocks, there is no concept of "lot" in the US stock market, and the minimum trading unit is 1 share.

Unlike A-shares, there are no daily price limits for US stocks, so investors also need to control their risks.

The US stock market supports T+0 trading system, which means that stocks bought on the same day can be sold on the same day.

The US stock market follows the T+2 delivery system, which means that settlement and clearing can be completed on the second business day after the transaction occurs.
