Heads up for a US holiday on Monday, January 20 – stock and bond markets closed

Monday January 20 is the Martin Luther King Day holiday in the US:

• The two major stock markets – the New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq – will be closed on Monday, November 11, 2024.
• Bond markets are closed. The Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA) recommends bond trading closed (SIFMA is the trade group that represents the bond market).

As for the CME futures trade … well, its complicated 🙂
