Unexpected NYSE Closings
In addition to holidays, the NYSE
may shut down under a variety of circumstances, including inclement weather or
national emergencies…
The assassination of President
Abraham Lincoln in 1865 caused the first extended closure of the NYSE,
shuttering the exchange for more than a week.
The exchange was down for five
months in 1914 at the onset of World War I. The market didn’t close on December 8, 1941, the day after the Pearl
Harbor bombing, but did close for two days in August 1945 to mark
the surrender of Japan.
The NYSE closed September 11-14, 2001, following the
terrorist attacks on the World Trade
Center and the Pentagon.
Of course, the NYSE doesn’t just close
for solemn occasions – sometimes they’re celebratory.
For instance, NYSE closed for
three days in 1889 to mark the centennial of President George Washington’s
inauguration. The exchange was also down for three days in 1892 to commemorate
the 400th anniversary of Christopher Columbus’ arrival in the New
World.
And it closed on July 21, 1969 to honor the first moon
landing.
Hurricanes, computer failures,
and power outages have also prompted unexpected closings of the NYSE.
