closing price

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus 0.01 sec.
Closing Price
The final price at which a security is traded on a given trading day. The closing price represents the most up-to-date valuation of a security until trading commences again on the next trading day.

Notes:
Most financial instruments are traded after hours (although with markedly smaller volume and liquidity levels), so the closing price of a security may not match its after-hours price. Still, closing prices provide a useful marker for investors to assess changes in stock prices over time - the closing price of one day can be compared to the previous closing price in order to measure market sentiment for a given security over a trading day.

Closing price
Price of the last transaction of a particular stock completed during a day's trading session on an exchange.
