The 24/7 SSF rollout, including MU, should boost liquidity, lower entry barriers (margin, no time decay), and attract more participants. This can tighten spreads and increase short-term trading activity, especially around earnings; historical analogs show liquidity additions from new futures/ETN products often precede volume uplift, though price impact depends on uptake and regulatory acceptance.
