Since the stock market is closed today, I figure it would be beneficial to list out the holiday schedule of the U.S. stock market in all of 2009 so there are no more confusion. In 2009, the stock market is closed on:
- New Year’s Day – Jan 1
- Martin Luther King, Jr. Day – Jan 19
- Washington’s Birthday – Feb 16 (observed)
- Good Friday – Apr 10
- Memorial Day – May 25
- Independence Day – Jul 3 (observed)
- Labor Day – Sept 7
- Thanksgiving Day – Nov 26
- Christmas – Dec 25
There are also two more days where the stock market will be closed early so people can go home to enjoy time with the family. That’s Friday, Nov 27 and Thursday, Dec 24.
