One might think that since the market is digital, it never closes! 💚 But, this is false! ❌

The stock market actually opens and closes 😮

The United States’ markets are open on the same schedule as other businesses! 💼

That’s the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and the Nasdaq 🛍️

Both are open: 9:30am EST to 4:00pm EST on weekdays ☀️

That’s 6:30am PST to 1:00pm PST 🌊

In other countries, the stock market hours are different & based on their own time zone 🌍

The London Stock Exchange is open from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM GMT 💂‍♂️

Holiday stock shopping spree ruined by market close? 😥

Don’t worry! 👀

Understanding when the market opens is important knowledge for every investor 🧠

Now you know why your stocks orders might not go through instantly! ⚡
