Governor Polis Rings the New York Stock Exchange Closing Bell

DENVER - Today, Governor Polis remotely rang the closing bell for the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) to signal the close of trading. The Governor was joined by NYSE President Lynn Martin and Colorado business leaders to celebrate Colorado’s economic success and strong business community. 

“We are proud of Colorado’s thriving business community and the contributions they make to our economy. Hosting the New York Stock Exchange in Colorado is a great opportunity to showcase the incredible work being done here and the fact that our state is the best place to launch and run a business, including a large public company,” said Governor Jared Polis. 

As an entrepreneur and businessperson, Governor Polis knows how important Colorado businesses are to the state and has taken steps to save businesses money on property taxes, increase low-cost training opportunities so businesses can hire the talent they need to grow and thrive, and is focused on addressing Colorado’s housing crisis so workers can afford to live close to their jobs and in the communities they choose.
