Because the attacks happened early in the day, The New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange and Nasdaq didn't open on September 11.

The Stock Market reopened on the 17th of September, 2001 - meaning that the stock market was closed for 6 full days of trading. When the Markets reopened, stocks dropped 684 points in the first day of trading.
