U.S. Stock Markets Open on Columbus/Indigenous Peoples' Day
U.S. stock markets will remain open on Monday, October 12 for Columbus and Indigenous Peoples’ Day, despite the federal government and many banks being closed due to the holiday. This means investors can continue trading as usual during regular market hours while other sectors observe a day off. The decision ensures continuity in financial activity even when parts of the broader economy are not operating at full capacity. The U.S. Treasury, Federal Reserve, and major banking institutions will be closed on this date due to the federal holiday, but stock exchanges such as the NYSE and Nasdaq have confirmed they will remain open.
