Markets 24/7

Why don't global stock markets, and others, don't function 24/7 ? Why is the world of trading operating like we are living in 1928? Exchanges should work non-stop, because trades take place non-stop, somewhere in the globe...
Not only that, why aren't stock markets integrated globally? Also, weekends and local holidays are useless hindrances, considering a globally integrated market.

I can only conclude it's due to laziness.
Money is money, regardless of physiological needs.

Money is money.
