Robinhood has launched AI-powered agents to help users automate trading and research, alongside expanding its trading hours to allow 24/7 weekend trading of select U.S. equities and ETFs.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech, and 2 sources have reported it between 30 Sep 2026 and 1 Oct 2026.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

AI-assisted trading is becoming an everyday tool, and your retail fintech product now needs automated agents or you risk losing the most sophisticated users. Weekend trading changes customer expectations on access – you must adjust your product offering or cede ground.
