moomoo employs secure, highly-available IT architecture to enable 24/5 trading of selected US stocks and ETFs – Partner Content

/in


Trading in United States equity markets enables Australian investors to diversify their portfolios with investments in some of the world’s largest and most-recognised businesses. To deliver 24-hour trading of selected U.S. stocks and exchange traded funds (ETFs), moomoo has connected its share trading platform to a registered broker-dealer with an alternative trading platform that operates outside regular U.S. trading hours.

The new offering means investors using moomoo can trade a list of 165 US stocks and ETFs during Australian daytime hours, as well as at night. 

“We selected the most-traded stocks and ETFs to ensure sufficient liquidity to enable smooth and efficient trades, especially during off-hours when trading volumes are generally lower,” said moomoo Australia chief market strategist Matt Wilson.

“Australia makes up less than 2% of global equities, so if you don’t invest in other markets, you are missing out on a lot of opportunities,” he added.

moomoo uses its own technology to connect via registered broker-dealer and alternative trading system (ATS) operator Blueocean. ATS is an electronic system for crossing orders in stocks governed by the National Market System, the United States’ securities trading regulation mechanism, and is available to registered broker-dealer subscribers only.  

 With the introduction of 24/5 US trading, moomoo users now have access to trading hours that cover the entire day, from 11am Monday to 11am Saturday (AEST).

Backing new feature with institutional tracking, ratings update and industrial chain tools

By using moomoo to invest in the U.S. market, Australians can access features such as an institutional tracking tool that tracks the quarterly holdings of more than 20,000 institutions. 

“This enables investors to ‘follow the big money’ and get an inside look into the strategies of the world’s top asset management firms,” explained Wilson.  

The moomoo application also includes real-time company ratings updates from 4,000 Wall Street analysts, while an ‘industrial chain’ tool also maps out divisions of labour and value chains in 17 industries so investors can identify key players and…

DENVER–(BUSINESS WIRE)–May 4, 2022–

Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:PLTR), a leading builder of operating systems in use across the U.S. government, today announced it had been selected by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) for its 5-year “Solutioning with Holistic Analytics Restructured for the Enterprise (SHARE)” Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA).

This $90 million BPA will allow HHS officials across the department’s many agencies and missions to select the Palantir platform to support their work. Palantir’s built-in data protection features, innovative technology, and common security framework were deemed well positioned to address critical technology needs across HHS.

HHS established the SHARE BPA to provide the best value to the department and its partnering agencies through a pool of prequalified contractors to, among other things, improve the delivery success and quality of data driven insights and outcomes. This contracting vehicle marks the expansion of Palantir’s scope of work at HHS and is separate and distinct from Palantir’s work with HHS and its agencies on COVID-19-related health missions.

Palantir’s first task order obtained under the contract vehicle’s framework is a 10.5-month, multi-million dollar contract to support HHS’s core administrative data and applications through a vertically integrated platform that allows teams to configure low to no code applications to manage, ingest, and access data securely, across business domains.

“We are grateful for our continued partnership with HHS and the confidence in our software it is showing by selecting Palantir for a long-term, wide-ranging BPA,” said Akash Jain, president of Palantir USG. “We are proud to provide the software backbone to some of the country’s most critical public health missions.”

Palantir Foundry enables data-driven decision-making by integrating data from siloed data sources and enabling granular access to data across various organizations. It is already used by the National Institutes of Health, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Food and Drug Administration, and was also used by several military branches…
