[Gate Expands Hong Kong Stock Trading Targets to Over 1,500, Continuously Improving Global Stock Asset Coverage System] Odaily Planet Daily News – Gate has expanded its Hong Kong stock trading targets to over 1,500, enriching the coverage of assets listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (HKEX) beyond the original 1,000+ stocks. This aims to enhance access to global stock markets. Users can directly trade HKEX-listed stocks through the stock trading portal, participate in pre-market and after-hours trading sessions, and conveniently invest in Hong Kong stocks using USDT without the need to open a traditional brokerage account or exchange for Hong Kong dollars, significantly lowering the entry barrier for global investors. Gate's Hong Kong stock trading service is fully available on both the App and Web platforms, with the Gate App requiring an update to version 8.23.5 or above. This expansion includes high-quality listed companies with leading market capitalization and liquidity on both the Main Board and GEM (Growth Enterprise Market), further optimizing the structure of Hong Kong stock assets. Additionally, Gate has established a multi-layered product system encompassing Pre-IPOs, Direct IPO Access, and secondary market stock trading. The Direct IPO Access feature provides users with a new channel to participate in the subscription of globally popular company listings. Furthermore, Gate's stock trading service supports users in trading over 10,000 U.S. mainstream market stocks and ETFs using USDT, covering major U.S. securities exchanges and liquidity networks such as NYSE (New York Stock Exchange), Nasdaq, NYSE Arca, NYSE American, and BATS. It also supports fractional share trading starting from as little as 0.01 shares. In the future, the platform will continue to expand its coverage of global stocks and traditional financial assets, optimizing asset allocation efficiency and enhancing the trading experience.
