Investors are wondering if the stock market is closed on Good Friday and we’ve got an answer.
The short answer is that the stock market is closed for Good Friday in 2023. Good Friday is traditionally a stock market holiday, which means both the Nasdaq and New York Stock Exchange won’t be open.
Good Friday is an interesting stock market holiday in that it’s not a Federal holiday. The stock market closes for Federal holidays throughout the year, but Good Friday is a specific instance where it closes for a holiday without Federal recognition.
And to answer another quick question, the stock market is always closed for Easter. Easter always takes place on a Sunday and the stock market is closed on weekends. Outside of Good Friday, the market doesn’t close due to Easter.
