  • U.S. users can trade 8,000+ stocks and ETFs 24/5, with fractional shares and USDC funding options.
  • A partnership with Yahoo Finance adds direct “Trade on Coinbase” access.
  • The rollout follows a $667M quarterly loss as Coinbase pursues tokenized stocks and global expansion.

Coinbase has rolled out stock trading to all U.S. users after a limited December 2025 launch. The expansion allows commission-free trading of stocks and ETFs across the United States. The move follows weaker quarterly earnings and reflects efforts to broaden services beyond crypto, according to company executives speaking this week.

Nationwide Stock Access Reaches All U.S. Users

Coinbase confirmed that U.S. users can now trade more than 8,000 stocks and exchange-traded funds. Trading runs 24 hours a day, five days a week, with some transaction fees still applying. Users may fund trades using U.S. dollars or the USDC stablecoin.

Fractional share trading is also supported, allowing eligible users to invest with as little as one dollar. According to Coinbase, the feature set mirrors traditional retail brokerage tools. The expansion follows an initial rollout with several hundred stocks introduced during a December product update.

The equities launch places Coinbase in closer competition with platforms like Robinhood. The company continues working toward its stated goal of becoming an all-asset trading platform.

Yahoo Finance Partnership Targets Broader Reach

Alongside the rollout, Coinbase announced a partnership with Yahoo Finance. Under the agreement, Yahoo Finance pages will feature a “Trade on Coinbase” button. The integration allows users to move directly from research to execution.

Mark Troianovski, Coinbase’s head of consumer business development, confirmed. He declined to disclose financial terms. Yahoo Finance reports more than 150 million monthly global visitors.

Yahoo Finance users will also receive a one-month trial of Coinbase One Basic. According to Yahoo Finance executive George Leimer, the integration reflects growing interest in crypto alongside traditional assets.

Earnings Pressure and Future Product Plans

Earlier this month, Coinbase reported a fourth-quarter net loss of $667 million. Revenue declined five percent quarter over quarter to $1.8 billion. Transaction revenue and subscription revenue both fell during the period.

Looking ahead, Coinbase said it plans to introduce tokenized stocks in coming months. It also aims to expand stock perpetuals internationally through Coinbase Bermuda. 

Those products will exclude U.S. users and remain subject to regulatory approval. Coinbase confirmed it uses Apex Fintech Solutions for clearing, custody, and trade execution services.
