What time does the NYSE open in UK time?
NYSE regular hours (9:30 AM - 4:00 PM ET) correspond to 14:30 - 21:00 UK time for most of the year, because the US and UK both observe daylight saving and the 5-hour offset is preserved.

During the two-week gaps when one country has switched DST but the other has not, the UK equivalent shifts by 1 hour.
