NYSE Closing for President Ford's Funeral?

I am sure no pointy head even thought of it when they went public... If I was a member of a leading market share exchange I would gladly take the day off. NYSE is in a competitive environment now.... Exchanges are $$$$$$$$ driven finally by competive forces, or we woudl still be trading in 1/8's, if you could get it......

Now that they are public, it is going to be a tough sell. Can you see any other public co closing for a funeral? I say next dead president, no close!!!!!!

how about NDAQ? :D

I don't mean to be unpatriotic, but come on, keep the exchanges open, some of us have to put bread on the table. :(

If no banks will be open, can't clear, convert, or settle.

One extra day off and your family is going to starve? :eek:
 
Everthing closes, fed minutes on wed instead of tues. Go trade rubber in japan and china or tiger shrimp in vietnam..... God Bless America.....

Not exactly, but I have a penchant for greed. (at least im honest about it) I'm a trader who has to pick the low lying fruit from the market. I'm not one of the lucky ones who sits and collects commissions all day.
