US Chamber of Commerce invites President Tinubu to ring NASDAQ closing bell
The United States Chamber of Commerce has invited President Bola Tinubu to ring the closing bell of the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations (NASDAQ) on Wednesday, September 20.
NASDAQ is a stock exchange market based in New York and is regarded as the most active stock trading venue in the U.S. by volume.
It is ranked second behind the New York Stock Exchange on market capitalisation.
The ringing of the closing bell signifies the end of a trading session on a particular day.
In a statement on Monday, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce said the bell-ringing ceremony with President Tinubu will occur on the sidelines of the 78th United Nations General Assembly session.
The ceremony will take place at NASDAQ headquarters in New York.
“We hope this celebration and the discussion as part of the U.S.-Nigeria Executive Business Dialogue serve to further strengthen economic ties and enhance collaboration between the U.S. and Nigerian business communities,” part of the statement read.
