Ive always heard that they dont like to shut down the exchanges for more than 3 days in a row. So maybe Wednesday. Who knows. jim

cnbc talking about possible funeral in 5-6 days, that might fall on sunday and then no extra day off for us....

You mean in January right? Not THIS Wednsday?

next week

by law, banks and financial markets cannot be closed more than 3 days in a row. So unless the state funeral is held off until next wednesday, I doubt there will be a day off. This is an interesting situation however, considering they always honor a president with a market close.

im sure he would have wanted the market to stay open
