Can I trade stocks on Christmas when the US market is closed?
Yes, as stock tokens, if you live outside the US: Catch has no trading hours, so each of the 70 stocks and ETFs on its stocks list can be bought or sold on Friday 25 December 2026, when US markets are closed for Christmas, and on Christmas Eve after the early close, for 0.50% once per move, $0.10 minimum. Each is a token that tracks a US-listed stock, issued by Coinbase or by Robinhood Assets (Jersey) Limited, not by Catch, and the issuers say they are not available to persons in the US.

What changes over Christmas
Nasdaq's 2026 holiday schedule lists an early close at 1:00 p.m. Eastern time on Thursday 24 December and the US stock market as closed on Friday 25 December for Christmas.
While US markets are closed there is no live share price to compare with, so token prices can move away from the last close. The stock page shows no premium until the next session.
Catch lists 70 stocks and ETFs: 17 have a Coinbase token on Base and 69 have a Robinhood token on Robinhood Chain. Each stock token is a token that tracks a US-listed stock or ETF. The tokens are issued by Coinbase on Base and by Robinhood Assets (Jersey) Limited on Robinhood Chain, not by Catch.
Where Catch is not a fit
Catch sells stock tokens held in your Catch wallet, not a brokerage account. If you want a brokerage account, Catch is not a fit.
If you want to trade at a live share price, wait for US market hours: on Christmas Day there is no live price to compare with.
If you live in the US, Catch is not a fit: Coinbase says its stock tokens are not available to persons in the US and other restricted places. Robinhood says its Stock Tokens are not available to residents of the US, Canada, the UK or Switzerland.
