Below is a complete breakdown of all stock market and bond market holidays for 2022. Please note that the list of stock market holidays has actually grown by one day in 2022. That’s because Congress voted in 2021 to make the June 19th holiday to commemorate the end of slavery — the 12th federal holiday. When President Joe Biden signed the law last year, June became the first new federal holiday since Martin Luther King Jr. Day, signed by then-President Ronald Reagan in 1983.
