U.S. markets closed Monday May 25

U.S. markets are closed on Monday, May 25, for Memorial Day. The New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq both list the federal holiday as a full-day closure on their 2026 trading calendars. The holiday pause comes after a shortened session in parts of fixed income on Friday, May 22. (nyse.com) Regular stock trading is set to resume on Tuesday, May 26. ### Which U.S. markets are actually closed on Monday? (sifma.org) NYSE lists Monday, May 25, 2026, as a market holiday for equities on its hours and calendars page. Nasdaq’s U.S. holiday trading schedule also shows Memorial Day as a closed session. (nyse.com) That means the main U.S. stock exchanges will not open for regular trading on Monday. Memorial Day is one of the scheduled U.S. market holidays observed by the major exchanges each year. For investors, that means no regular-session trading in listed U.S. stocks, ETFs and exchange-traded options on those venues during the holiday closure. (nyse.com) ### What happened in bonds before the holiday? SIFMA, the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association, publishes the recommended U.S. holiday schedule for fixed-income markets. For Memorial Day 2026, SIFMA said the U.S. market should close early at 2 p.m. Eastern on Friday, May 22, and remain closed on Monday, May 25. (nyse.com) The bond-market recommendation is separate from the stock-exchange calendars, which did not schedule a Friday early close ahead of Memorial Day. In practice, that left equities on their normal Friday timetable while much of the U.S. bond market followed the shortened SIFMA recommendation into the long weekend. (nyse.com) ### Did stocks close early on Friday too? Nasdaq’s holiday schedule shows no Memorial Day eve early close for U.S. equities in 2026. NYSE’s calendar likewise lists Memorial Day as a full closure on Monday, without a separate early-close entry for Friday, May 22. (sifma.org) That differs from some other U.S. market holidays. NYSE’s published calendar includes early closes for certain sessions such as the day after Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve in 2026, but not for the Friday before Memorial Day. (nyse.com) ### When does normal trading start again? Tuesday, May 26, 2026, is the next scheduled trading day for U.S. stock markets after the Memorial Day break. Because Monday is a full holiday closure for NYSE and Nasdaq, regular hours resume with the next business day on Tuesday. (nyse.com) NYSE says its standard cash equities session runs from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Eastern on normal trading days. Nasdaq’s U.S. holiday page also directs traders to its regular trading-hours framework outside listed holiday closures. (nyse.com) ### Where should traders check the official schedule? The NYSE and Nasdaq holiday calendar pages are the primary references for U.S. stock-market closures. SIFMA’s holiday schedule is the main reference for recommended U.S. fixed-income trading hours and early closes. (nyse.com) Monday, May 25, is the next full U.S. market holiday on the exchange calendars, and Tuesday, May 26, is the next regular session for equities. Traders looking ahead can find later 2026 early-close dates on the same NYSE, Nasdaq and SIFMA schedule pages. (nyse.com)
