On January 7, 2025, the Nasdaq Composite recorded its highest-ever trading volume, reaching 13.4 billion shares. This surpasses the previous record of 11.9 billion shares set on May 16, 2024. The heavy trading day saw a total of 20.5 billion shares traded across U.S. stocks, although a notable portion of this volume was attributed to sub-dollar stocks, which accounted for 25% of the overall volume. Additionally, 65% of the Nasdaq's volume was on the upside, indicating that the trading activity was largely driven by speculative trading in lower-priced stocks rather than panic selling. The top five most active stocks represented 47% of the total volume, with $XTIA alone contributing 20%. In contrast, major stocks such as Nvidia and Tesla accounted for significant trading values, with Nvidia representing 18% of the value traded at $49.3 billion.
