SUMMARY:Is the Stock Market Open on Martin Luther King Day 2027? Bond Market Hours
DESCRIPTION:US Bond Market (SIFMA) are closed on Monday\, January 18\, 2027 for Martin Luther King Day. \n\nNext holiday\nPresidents Day\, February 15\, 2027\nRegular hours\n8:00 am to 5:00 pm ET (SIFMA recommended)\n\nFull schedule and background: Bond Market Holidays. \nUpdated September 20\, 2026 \n\n← Previous Bond Market Holidays\nThe US bond market is closed on Monday\, January 18\, 2027 for Martin Luther King Jr. Day\, following the recommended holiday schedule published by the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA). Equity markets\, including the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq\, are also closed that day\, as MLK Day is a full market holiday across US trading venues. Any bond trades or transfers timed for that day queue for the next business day\, and settlement dates that fall on the holiday roll to the following session. Full schedule and background: bond market holidays. \nFor readers outside the US\, this is a US-specific holiday. Markets in London\, Paris and Tokyo trade as normal\, though liquidity in dollar-denominated bonds and US-linked assets may be thinner than usual with US desks shut. \nWhich markets are closed on Martin Luther King Day 2027?\n\n\n\nMarket\nStatus\nNotes\n\n\n\n\nUS Bond Market (SIFMA recommendation)\nClosed\nCovers Treasuries\, agency debt and most fixed income desks\n\n\nNYSE / Nasdaq (equities)\nClosed\nStandard NYSE holiday calendar\n\n\nCME futures (US)\nClosed or limited\nMost US futures pause or run reduced hours; check CME’s own calendar for specifics\n\n\nUS options markets\nClosed\nFollows equity market closure\n\n\nLondon Stock Exchange (LSE)\nOpen (regular hours)\nDoes not observe US holidays\n\n\nEuronext\nOpen (regular hours)\nDoes not observe US holidays\n\n\nTokyo Stock Exchange (TSE)\nOpen (regular hours)\nDoes not observe US holidays; local Japanese holidays apply separately\n\n\n\nIs the market open the day before and after?\nFriday\, January 15\, 2027 is a normal full trading day\, with regular bond market hours of 8:00 am to 5:00 pm ET as recommended by SIFMA. There is no early close scheduled ahead of MLK Day. The next trading day is Tuesday\, January 19\, 2027\, when the bond market reopens on its usual schedule. \nWhy do markets close for Martin Luther King Day?\nMartin Luther King Jr. Day is a federal holiday observed on the third Monday of January\, marking the birthday of the civil rights leader. It became a federal holiday in 1983 and was first observed nationwide in 1986. US financial markets\, including the bond market and the major stock exchanges\, close in line with the federal holiday calendar\, reflecting the closure of government offices\, the Federal Reserve and banks. \nWhat It Means for Your Money\nIf you place a bond order or attempt a wire transfer on January 18\, it will not process until markets reopen on January 19\, and settlement that would normally take one business day (T+1) is pushed back accordingly. Coupon payments or scheduled interest dates falling on the holiday typically move to the next business day. US banks are generally closed for the federal holiday\, so in-branch transactions and some ACH transfers may be delayed. Payroll runs scheduled for the holiday often shift a day earlier or later depending on the employer’s calendar. Cryptocurrency markets are unaffected\, as they trade continuously regardless of traditional market holidays. \nRemaining bond market holidays in 2027\n\nPresidents Day: February 15\, 2027 (closed)\nGood Friday: March 26\, 2027 (closed)\nDay before Memorial Day: May 28\, 2027 (early close\, 2:00 pm ET)\nMemorial Day: May 31\, 2027 (closed)\nJuneteenth (observed): June 18\, 2027 (closed)\nDay before Independence Day: July 2\, 2027 (early close\, 2:00 pm ET)\nIndependence Day (observed): July 5\, 2027 (closed)\nLabor Day: September 6\, 2027 (closed)\nColumbus Day: October 11\, 2027 (closed)\nVeterans Day: November 11\, 2027 (closed)\nThanksgiving Day: November 25\, 2027 (closed)\nDay after Thanksgiving: November 26\, 2027 (early close\, 2:00 pm ET)\nDay before Christmas: December 23\, 2027 (early close\, 2:00 pm ET)\nChristmas Day (observed): December 24\, 2027 (closed)\nNew Year’s Eve: December 31\, 2027 (early close\, 2:00 pm ET)\n\nFrequently Asked Questions\nIs the stock market open on Martin Luther King Day 2027?\nNo\, the NYSE and Nasdaq are closed on Monday\, January 18\, 2027\, alongside the bond market. \nIs the bond market open on Martin Luther King Day 2027?\nNo\, SIFMA’s recommended holiday schedule has the US bond market fully closed on January 18\, 2027. \nWhat time does the bond market close the day before MLK Day?\nJanuary 15\, 2027 is a normal trading day with no early close\, so the bond market runs its usual hours of 8:00 am to 5:00 pm ET. \nWhen is the next market holiday after MLK Day 2027?\nThe next market holiday is Presidents Day\, falling on February 15\, 2027. \nAre banks open on Martin Luther King Day 2027?\nMost US banks follow the federal holiday calendar and are closed on January 18\, 2027\, though hours can vary by institution. \n← Previous Bond Market Holidays
