The Week Ahead In The Market: All Markets Closed Wed. 12/5/18 In Honor Of George Bush 41

Ted

FYI: After a busy week with market-moving speeches from Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell and Vice Chairman Rich Clarida and the start of the highly-anticipated G-20 summit in Argentina, next week is also gearing up to be packed with key events. Note, that in memory of President George H.W. Bush, all of the major markets will be closed on Wednesday, December 5.
Regards,

Financial institutions were still open, so it was possible to trade mutual funds. See, e.g. https://www.vox.com/2018/12/5/18127158/george-hw-bush-open-national-mourning-day

I placed a fund order at 8:51 AM yesterday and it settled at end of day. (I'd say at close of market, but the market was closed.)

I kind of wish markets would stay closed until the 1st Tuesday in November, 2020.
