What we call the stock market in the United States is actually two different stock exchanges: the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and the Nasdaq. Luckily for American investors, both exchanges keep the same hours and observe the same holidays and half days.
Typically, the stock market is open for trading every Monday through Friday from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. ET, although it closes in observance of 10 different stock market holidays each year.

Is the stock market closed on Presidents Day?
The stock market will be closed on Monday, February 17th, 2025 in observance of Presidents Day, which is referred to as Washington’s Birthday at the federal level.
This means that investors should plan to execute any important trades before the 4:00 p.m. closing bell on Friday, Feb. 14, or plan to delay them until after the 9:30 a.m. opening bell on Tuesday, Feb. 18.
That being said, many brokerages allow for extended-hours trading, meaning some investors may be able to make trades until 8:00 p.m. on Friday the 14th or begin trading again starting at 4:00 a.m. on Tuesday the 18th.
