NEW YORK — U.S. financial markets are closed Monday, Sept. 7, in observance of Labor Day, with both the New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq suspending trading for the federal holiday before resuming normal operations Tuesday morning.

Labor Day is one of 10 official holidays the NYSE and Nasdaq observe each year, and it consistently falls on the first Monday in September. This year's observance lines up with the federal holiday designated by the U.S. Office of Personnel Management, which also closes government offices, banks and postal services nationwide.

Trading on both major exchanges will resume at their standard 9:30 a.m. Eastern time opening bell Tuesday, Sept. 8, following the closure. Regular U.S. stock market hours run from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Eastern time, Monday through Friday, with both exchanges also closed on weekends year-round.

Bond markets are following the same closure schedule Monday, in line with guidance from the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association, the trade group representing securities firms, banks and asset managers. Bond markets close on nine of the same 10 stock market holidays each year, the lone exception being Good Friday, and also close for Columbus Day and Veterans Day, two federal holidays the stock exchanges themselves remain open for.

Investors looking ahead to the rest of 2026 have three more scheduled market closures remaining on the calendar. The NYSE and Nasdaq will close........
