LONDON, Dec. 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — EBC Financial Group (EBC) is excited to announce the launch of US Stock Contracts for Difference (CFDs) on its trading platform. This highly anticipated addition expands EBC’s already diverse array of trading products, which includes forex, commodities, indices, and more. With this launch, global traders now have seamless access to shares of the most influential companies in the world, including NVIDIA, Tesla, Apple, Microsoft, and Meta. This development positions EBC at the forefront of delivering innovative trading opportunities to clients across Asia Pacific, Latin America, Africa, and beyond.
The launch comes at a pivotal time for global markets, following the US presidential election that has reignited market volatility and trading opportunities. EBC’s US Stock CFDs empowering global traders to capitalise on these dynamics, offering an innovative way to diversify portfolios while navigating the ever-changing global financial landscape.
Bridging the Gap: Global Access to the US Stock Market
The US stock market, which accounts for over 65% of global market capitalization, is recognised as the epicentre of global finance and innovation. By introducing US Stock CFDs, EBC allows its clients to tap into this vibrant market, leveraging the performance of iconic US brands across technology, banking, and retail sectors.
This offering includes carefully selected stocks known for their growth potential and resilience, such as NVIDIA, whose leadership in AI has driven a 170% stock surge this year, and Apple, a trailblazer in technology and consumer products.
Through EBC’s latest offering, traders can easily take positions on market movements, with the convenient ability to go long or short depending on market conditions, and the absence of stamp duties ensures cost-efficiency. By optimising capital requirements, the platform allows investors to engage with top US companies without tying up significant funds, offering both accessibility and portfolio flexibility.
Another key feature is the opportunity to benefit from corporate dividend payouts. Positions held on ex-dividend dates receive equivalent rewards, mirroring the benefits of direct stock ownership.
