U.S. stock and options markets will be closed on Monday, Oct. 29, 2012 and pending confirmation on Tuesday, Oct. 30, 2012 due to Hurricane Sandy.

"We support the consensus of the markets and the regulatory community that the dangerous conditions developing as a result of Hurricane Sandy will make it extremely difficult to ensure the safety of our people and communities, and safety must be our first priority," the NYSE said in a statement.
