This year’s Juneteenth falls on a Sunday, so the holiday will be observed on Monday, June 20 with the U.S. financial markets, including the New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq shutting down.

U.S. stock and bond markets will be closed Monday, June 20, in observance of the Juneteenth holiday, which commemorates the end of slavery in America.

Juneteenth, which is celebrated annually by many on June 19, is a day marking the end of slavery in the U.S. It was on that date in 1865 that Union Gen. Gordon Granger read the Emancipation Proclamation to the people of Galveston, Texas, roughly 2½ years after the proclamation was issued on Jan. 1, 1863.
