Fourth of July weekend has arrived and if you’ve made it to this page, you’re likely wondering if the stock market will be open today or if the holiday might cause its closure.
It’s an understandable question to have. After all, unlike other big holidays, many businesses do not close their doors for the Fourth of July. As such, it can be hard to keep track of just what the holiday affects and whether The New York Stock Exchange and The Standard recognize the holiday as one of the handfuls of holidays in which they do not operate.
