Credited from: NPR

  • Wall Street's opening bells will remain silent as both the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq close for trading.
  • The closure is in recognition of a national day of mourning for former President Jimmy Carter, who died at age 100.
  • This marks a continuation of a tradition dating back to 1865, following the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln.
  • While the stock markets close, bonds will trade until 2 p.m., as per guidance from the SIFMA trade association.
  • The Nasdaq's president stated the decision was a collective effort to honor Carter's service and contributions to the nation.
