STOCK & BOND MARKETS ARE CLOSED
By Staff Reporters

Stocks are on a seemingly unstoppable record-setting rally, but investor excitement appears to be taking a backseat in what could be a quiet, holiday-shortened week bifurcated by the Juneteenth observance on Wednesday.
The New York Stock Exchange and the NASDAQ are closed on Wednesday, June 19 to commemorate the ending of slavery in the United States, as are U.S. bond markets. Juneteenth has been observed in Black communities since as far back as the 19th century, but it wasn’t until 2021 that President Joe Biden officially made it a federal holiday.
