ORDER BY dateRead di table from top go bottom and e double as countdown: di days_away column dey measure each closure from today, and di day_status column dey mark whether di market dark for di whole day or e just dey close early. One single holiday fit take two rows — full-closure day next to shortened session — as Thanksgiving Thursday dey do with di half-day Friday wey follow am.
Wetin happen when holiday fall on weekend?
US exchanges dey observe fixed-date holiday on di nearest weekday. When holiday land on Saturday, di market go take di Friday before off; when e land on Sunday, e go close di Monday after. New Year's Day na di exception: when January 1 fall on Saturday, di market no dey closed di Friday before — dat Friday, December 31, dey inside di prior year — so no makeup day at all. Dis nearest-weekday rule na why one holiday weekday dey shift from year to year for di table above — and why some years dey give traders four-day week around di Fourth of July. Floating holidays like Thanksgiving (di fourth Thursday of November) and Memorial Day (di last Monday of May) don already pin to one weekday, so dem never dey move.
Wetin be di difference between full closure and early close?
Di schedule ahead dey split into two kinds of day. Full closure mean no regular session and no trading at all. Early close — shortened half day — na regular session wey end at 1 p.m. ET rather than 4:00 p.m., three and half hours of regular trading instead of six and half.

Di early closes dey cluster around two holidays: di Friday after Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve, plus July 3 for years when e fall on weekday ahead of Independence Day. For early-close day, di closing auction still dey run — e just print at 1:00 p.m. rather than 4:00 p.m. — and di after-hours session dey shift with am, beginning at 1:00 p.m. instead of 4:00 p.m.; di premarket window no change, since dem anchor am to di 9:30 a.m. open, wey no dey move. Volume or closing-price calculation wey assume 4:00 p.m. close on one of these days go quietly overstate di day.
How I go take check if market don close for past date?
Di exchange calendar for dis warehouse na forward-looking: e dey list only di holidays wey still dey ahead and e dey drop each one di moment e pass. Dat one dey keep "wetin dey next" accurate, but e mean say date wey don already happen no dey inside di table again. To audit closure from di past, you go count di tape instead. Full six-and-half-hour session work out to 390 one-minute bars (6.5 × 60 minutes); three-and-half-hour early close to 210 (3.5 × 60); full holiday go print none at all. Weekday wey get zero regular-session bars na, by definition, day wey di market shut.
