IMF: Tokenized Stocks Are 1.5x More Volatile Than Regular Shares

  • —Over 50% of tokenized stock volume traded outside US market hours
  • —About 80% of transactions were for less than one full share
  • —Token price swings were roughly 1.5x larger than regular shares
  • —The tokenized stock market quadrupled this year but remains small
Why it matters: The IMF warns that thin liquidity and 24/7 trading could accelerate sell-offs and spread stress across platforms as the market grows.
