U.S. markets are closed on Thursday for Thanksgiving, and many investors may be traveling – or, in other words, away from their workstations.

However, that doesn't mean the rest of the world will be taking the day off. And U.S. markets re-open for business on Friday, though they will close early, at 1:00 PM ET.

Luckily, investors with smartphones or tablets have access to a ton of useful apps to keep them up to speed while away from their desks, if they so choose.

We went through nearly 100 finance-related mobile apps and these are the best ones we found.

Most of the apps listed here are either free or pretty inexpensive, too.
