Hi guys, I have a quick question. Can anyone suggest an easy way to find on which business days the US exchanges were closed in 2000 and 2001? - i.e. the majority of other businesses were open, but not the exchanges.
Thanks a bunch.
 
I mean I know I can always call them, but I'd have to wait until after the holidays and I'm kind of impatient to check something that promises to be really neat.
TIA.

There is a traders almanac that shows all of that stuff. They might even be able to give you past editions.
