daylight saving time

When some countries move their clocks forward in summer, which changes what time their markets open for people elsewhere.

Seasonal clock changes that shift market hours seen from other time zones. US daylight saving time begins on the second Sunday of March and ends on the first Sunday of November, and UK clocks change on the last Sundays of March and October, so US hours move by one hour for traders in India and Japan.
