Is the market open the day before and after?
The TSE traded normal hours (9:00 am to 11:30 am and 12:30 pm to 3:30 pm JST) on Friday, January 8, 2027, the last session before the holiday. Trading resumes as usual on Tuesday, January 12, 2027, with no early close either side of the holiday. Investors placing orders on the closed Monday should expect them to be handled at the Tuesday open.
Why do markets close for Coming of Age Day?
Coming of Age Day is a Japanese public holiday held on the second Monday of January to mark young people who reached the age of majority in the previous year. Local governments and communities hold ceremonies for new adults, and as with other Japanese national holidays, banks and the stock exchange close because it is a designated public holiday under Japanese law rather than a market-specific closure.
Because the holiday moves with the “Happy Monday” system that shifted several Japanese holidays to Mondays to create long weekends, its exact date changes each year, though it always falls in the second week of January.
What It Means for Your Money
If you hold Japanese shares, ETFs or funds through an international broker, any instructions given on January 11 will simply wait until the market reopens on January 12; nothing is lost, but execution is delayed by a day. Settlement of trades placed just before the holiday may also be pushed back by a session under Japan’s standard T+2 settlement cycle. Dividend record dates and options expiries scheduled around this period are typically adjusted by JPX to the nearest trading day, so check the specific security’s calendar rather than assuming no change. The holiday has no direct effect on UK or US mortgage rates, savings accounts or pensions, though a quiet Tokyo session can mean thinner overnight liquidity in the yen and in Asia-linked assets, which some traders watch when pricing currency pairs like USD/JPY. Cryptocurrency markets are unaffected, since they trade continuously regardless of national holidays.
