Frequently asked questions
Can I see the MSFT stock price on weekends?
Yes. The official MSFT price comes from Nasdaq, which sets a last price during the regular session (9:30 AM to 4:00 PM Eastern) with pre-market and after-hours quotes until 8:00 PM Eastern on weekdays. After that it freezes for the night and the weekend. WeekendIndex shows a live MSFT price 24/7, so you can still check Microsoft on Saturday and Sunday.
Why is MSFT moving when the stock market is closed?
WeekendIndex reads markets that price Microsoft around the clock, including at the weekend. Those markets keep trading on news while the exchange is shut, so the price here keeps moving. It is an implied market price, not the official Nasdaq last sale, and it can differ from where MSFT actually opens.
What are the trading hours for MSFT?
Microsoft trades on Nasdaq from 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM Eastern on weekdays, with pre-market and after-hours sessions around that window. WeekendIndex shows a price outside those hours too, 365 days a year.
Is this the same as the after-hours MSFT price?
No. After-hours quotes come from US venues that also close, at 8:00 PM Eastern on weekdays. The price here comes from markets that never close, so it covers the whole weekend and every holiday as well.
