The stock market in the United States will be closed on Monday, May 26, 2025, for Memorial Day.

 

Memorial Day is a federal holiday that honors those who died in U.S. military service.

 

Memorial Day has its origins from the time of the Civil War, when people began laying flowers on the graves of soldiers in the spring. At the time, the day was known as Decoration Day. Memorial Day has since become a holiday to include all those who died during U.S. military service. It is observed on the last Monday in May.

 

The New York Stock Exchange closes for a long weekend after shutting down early (1 p.m.) on Friday, May 23. It will reopen on Tuesday, May 27.
