TOKYO, Oct 15 (Reuters) - The Tokyo Stock Exchange is set to extend its trading hours for 30 minutes starting in 2024, the financial daily Nikkei reported on Friday. The bourse has long been considering such a move in an attempt to attract more foreign and retail investors, and recently concluded a report outlining plans for new hours ending at 3:30 p.m. (0630 GMT) rather than 3:00 p.m., the Nikkei said.
