The ringing of the NYSE closing bell marks the closing of the stock markets. The bell is located at the New York Stock Exchange in New York.

The NYSE website notes that only companies listed on the New York STock Exchange can ring the opening or closing bell, marking the opening or closing of the American stock markets. Despite this rule, the NYSE sometimes makes an exception for non-listed companies to ring the bell.
