    It was opined: "Why dont we just run the markets 24-7

    Answer it would trade so much on emotion its not funny. After close people have time to recollect days trade and identify where the next day will take us.

    Trading 24-7 we would see very little trade as sellers and buyers would be exhausted after a certain number of hours."

    Oh, tish and pshaw. To those, such as myself, who buy equally on the local market and overseas, it already is a 24 hour a day market. Fancy just buying Australian shares!
