Black Friday is a major event for retailers, opening its doors to shoppers looking for holiday bargains, but the day after Thanksgiving, it’s business as usual in much of the rest of the United States

Many large retailers close their doors on Thanksgiving, including Walmart, Costco, Kohl’s and Target.

But all of these chains will be open on Black Friday, although some may have longer hours to accommodate shoppers.

Retailers are promising in-store experiences and exclusive offers to lure consumers to the door. A number of stores that were closed on Thanksgiving are reopening early Friday as retailers work to get the holiday shopping season into full swing.

Is the stock market open on Black Friday?

Yes, US markets are open on Black Friday, with one major restriction.

On November 29th, both the New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq exchange will open at 9:30 a.m. ET as usual, but will close at 1 p.m. instead of 4 p.m. on Friday

The next holiday for the US stock market is December 25th, when trading will be closed for the Christmas holiday.

Is the US Postal Service open on Black Friday?

Yes, the U.S. Postal Service is open on Black Friday because November 29th is not a federal holiday, although the service was closed on Thanksgiving.

This means retail locations and postal delivery services will operate as normal on November 29th.

The next holiday when stores and deliveries will be suspended is scheduled for Christmas Day.
