Italy’s stock market, at Piazza Affari in Milan.
The Euronext Milan (Borsa Italiana) in Milan, Italy, is open 09:00–17:30 local time, Monday to Friday. It trades straight through with no lunch break. Today that is to in UTC.
When Milan opens, liquidity in EUR rises; when it closes, it thins out. The hours when two big centres overlap — London with New York, Tokyo with Sydney — are when spreads are tightest and the large moves usually start. Book I of the ForeXistenZ trilogy teaches how to plan your day around these session hand-offs.
The regular session of MIL runs 09:00–17:30 local time (Europe/Rome), Monday to Friday. It is closed on Italy public holidays. Opening and closing auctions are not included.
The live box on this page works it out from MIL’s regular hours in Milan time, so it is always current; it shows OPEN, LUNCH BREAK or CLOSED and when the next change comes. Public holidays are not shown.
The benchmark followed here is the FTSE MIB. Its delayed public quote appears on this page.
Shares on MIL are priced in EUR. A foreign investor buying them must first buy EUR, so heavy equity flows into Italy show up in the EUR exchange rate.
