Pensions Look Beyond Equities and Bonds

Stock trading is now available on Coinbase to everyone in the U.S., enabling customers to trade stocks and ETFs 24/5 in the same place as their crypto.¹ As part of this milestone, Coinbase and Yahoo Finance are partnering to enable users to move from researching an asset on Yahoo Finance to executing a trade on Coinbase with one simple click. Yahoo Finance will also offer traders seamless asset discovery and tracking within the Yahoo Finance interface. This marks a major step in bridging traditional markets with the digital asset economy.

Stock trading is now fully available to all Coinbase users in the United States. You can now buy, sell, and manage stocks and ETFs right alongside your crypto holdings – 24/5, with zero commission.¹ This milestone bridges the divide between traditional investments and the digital asset economy, allowing users to manage a unified portfolio – all within a single app and account. You can fund your trades instantly using both USD and USDC, with Coinbase One members earning uncapped rewards on their USDC trading balance.² And with fractional shares, start trading stocks with as little as $1.

24-hour trading is here

The traditional financial system shouldn’t stop just because the sun goes down. At Coinbase, we believe everyone should have the ability to react instantly to market-moving news. That’s why Coinbase users can also trade thousands of stocks 24 hours a day, five days a week.

We’re starting with the market’s leading equities and plan to expand 24/5 trading to thousands more stocks over the coming months. This spring, Coinbase also plans to broaden stock perpetuals, enabling traders outside the U.S. to get 24/7, capital-efficient exposure to U.S. equities.³

Looking ahead, Coinbase plans to offer tokenized stocks, paving the way for a truly always-on market.⁴ Soon you will be able to trade anywhere in the world, leverage your equity holdings as onchain collateral, and make instant payments backed by your stock value. Today’s stock trading expansion builds the foundation for a faster, more accessible financial future.

Partnering with Yahoo Finance for smarter trading

To equip traders with the tools they need to track both stocks and crypto, maximize earnings, and consolidate their portfolios, Coinbase is teaming up with the world’s most-visited destination for financial news, data, and personal finance tools, with more than 150 million global monthly visitors: Yahoo Finance. The partnership between Yahoo Finance and Coinbase effectively turns market news into immediate market action, allowing users to move from researching an asset on Yahoo Finance to executing a trade on Coinbase with one simple click. Yahoo Finance will additionally incorporate real-time information directly from Coinbase, enabling users to easily discover and monitor assets. As part of this partnership, Yahoo Finance users can also enjoy a free 1-month trial of Coinbase One Basic.² This partnership ensures traders have the resources they need to thrive in an increasingly “always-on” market across asset classes.

To deliver a unified stock trading experience within Coinbase’s simple and intuitive interface, we’ve also integrated with Apex Fintech Solutions for their cutting-edge clearing, custody, and execution services.

The future of finance is being built on Coinbase.

Our Everything Exchange vision is about removing artificial boundaries between asset classes and building for the next generation of markets. This expansion is a foundational step toward unifying traditional investments and digital assets into a single platform, simplifying portfolio management and unlocking what comes next.
