24/5 access on CMC Invest

In its 10 September 2026 announcement, CMC Markets said the expansion brings 24/5 US share trading to the CMC Invest platform for UK clients. The company said the extended access is intended to let investors respond to company news, earnings announcements and market developments outside the traditional US trading session. CMC Markets described the change as combining 24/5 market access with fractional investing, allowing clients to choose when and how much they invest.

Fractional orders and commission

CMC Markets said fractional shares support all available order types, including market orders, during extended and overnight sessions. Investing is available at 0% commission, with other charges applying, according to the announcement. The notice did not detail those other charges. The announced availability is for UK clients using CMC Invest, as described in the announcement.

Executive comment

Lachlan Rourke-Davies, Senior Product Manager at CMC Markets, said: "Bringing 24/5 trading and fractional investing together gives investors the freedom to respond when markets move and invest the amount that works for them." He added: "It’s a major step forward for CMC and another example of how we’re building a more flexible, modern investing experience." Laurence Booth, Global Head of Markets, said: "We're bringing CMC’s trading and investing capabilities together as we build the next phase of our global multi-asset offering." Booth also said: "US markets don’t stop moving when the core session closes, and now our clients don’t have to either."
