Stock Market Holiday on May 25, 2026 or Not?

The Indian stock markets, including the NSE and BSE, will remain open on Monday, May 25, 2026. However, the U.S. stock markets such as the NYSE and NASDAQ will stay closed due to the Memorial Day holiday in the United States.

Indian markets are expected to witness cautious and range-bound trading as investors react to mixed global and domestic signals. While strong earnings from global companies like Nvidia have boosted international market sentiment, Indian markets are still facing pressure from foreign institutional investor (FII) selling.

Despite this, strong buying from domestic institutional investors (DIIs) is helping support the market and limiting major downside moves. Analysts believe the Nifty index could find support between 23,150 and 23,250 levels, while resistance is expected near the 23,800 to 24,000 range.

Market experts are recommending a stock-specific and defensive trading strategy. Sectors like IT are attracting attention after recent recovery signs, while energy, pharma, and metal stocks are also expected to remain in focus.

Since U.S. markets are closed for Memorial Day, global trading cues from Wall Street will be missing on Monday. Normal trading activities in the U.S. markets will resume on Tuesday, May 26, 2026.

Investors can follow live market updates, stock movements, and technical charts through the official websites of NSE India and BSE India.
