US markets closed for Juneteenth on Thursday, June 19th – market hours impact

U.S. markets will be closed Thursday for the Juneteenth holiday.

NYSE and Nasdaq will be closed.

The Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA, the trade group that represents the bond market.) is recommending the US Bond market closed that day. So it is.

FX desks will be closed, perhaps the odd skeleton crew.
