No. United States stock markets are closed on Friday, July 4, 2025. According to the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq websites, their markets also close early (at 1 p.m.) on Thursday, July 3. The Federal Reserve considers the Fourth of July a bank holiday, meaning most banks will be closed.

"The labor market continues to defy expectations," writes Morgan Stanley Wealth Management Chief Economic Strategist Ellen Zentner. "Today's stronger-than-expected jobs data highlighted ongoing U.S. economic resilience in the face of multiple challenges, but it also likely pulled the plug on a rate cut later this month."

Friday marks the 249 th anniversary of the adoption of the Declaration of Independence — and the Fourth of July holiday has become one filled with fireworks, musical celebrations and other flag-waving opportunities.
