The stock market is closed today, August 29, 2025, because it is a holiday observed as Labor Day. The major U.S. exchanges such as the NYSE and Nasdaq follow federal holiday schedules, and Labor Day, which falls on the first Monday in September (September 1 in 2025), leads to a long weekend closure including the day before the holiday for many traders. This closure includes stock and bond markets being closed on the holiday to honor the social and economic achievements of American workers.
