The financial markets will be closed on Friday, April 7th, for Good Friday holiday observation. Most firms will process transaction requests received on April 7th as if received on Monday, April 10, before 4 p.m., Eastern Standard Time. Since it is not a federal holiday, almost everything else will be open. The U.S. bond market will open at its usual 8 a.m. EDT on Friday but close early at noon EDT. Regular hours resume on Monday.
