Investors and traders should note that major US exchanges, including the NYSE and Nasdaq, are closed for business today in honor of Juneteenth. The holiday, which commemorates the end of slavery in the United States, has been a recognized federal holiday since 2021.
Because the markets are dark, no trading activity will occur across equities, options, or bond markets. Regular operations are scheduled to resume tomorrow morning as usual.
For those tracking portfolios, this pause represents a scheduled break in the trading calendar. Market participants should adjust their expectations and plan for a resumption of normal volatility and liquidity on Thursday.
