[Latest News] Longbridge Now Supports US Fractional Shares Trading – Own US Stocks for Just USD 1*
Longbridge Securities Singapore ("Longbridge Singapore") announced the launch of US fractional shares trading service. Investors can now build positions in US stocks like Apple and Tesla with investments as low as USD 1, significantly lowering the barrier to enter the market and explore more flexible capital allocation strategies.
Fractional shares trading: making investing accessible
Traditional stock markets have long imposed whole-share trading requirements, where purchasing a single share of high-priced stocks often requires hundreds or even thousands of dollars, raising the entry threshold for investors with limited capital. US fractional shares trading breaks through these limitations by allowing investors to buy stocks by dollar amount or fractional shares. For long-term investors, fractional trading provides more flexible asset allocation strategies, enabling them to adjust their portfolios without being constrained by stock prices or whole-share trading rules.
Furthermore, fractional shares trading helps investors better manage market fluctuations. Investors can build positions gradually based on their risk tolerance and market conditions, making smarter use of their capital. As investing becomes increasingly accessible worldwide, fractional shares provide beginners with an easy entry point into the US market, while allowing experienced investors to fine-tune their strategies with greater precision - further enhancing capital flexibility.

Investors can easily explore eligible stocks through the "Classification" section under the "Market" tab in the Longbridge App, or identify supported stocks by looking for the "fractional shares" icon on the stock detail page.
The Longbridge App offers two flexible order placement options: investors can either specify the fractional share quantity or input the dollar amount they wish to invest.
