From google search:
weekend?
The Uniform Monday Holiday Act was signed on June 28, 1968, and it changed the traditional days for Washington's Birthday, Memorial Day, Veterans Day, and Columbus Day, to ensure that the holidays fell on a Monday, giving federal employees a three-day weekend.Nov 11, 2021

On Friday, November 11, Fidelity Investor Centers, along with all major stock markets will be open for business. However, in observance of Veterans Day (originally known as Armistice Day) bond markets and banks will be closed. This will delay account settlements, distributions, withdrawals, transfers, and money market fund trading due to the bank closures.

kadee77 has a double-digit gain to win this week's trophy. Ombud also earned double digits in second and the benchmark has a blockbuster gain for third. Considering what happened to Blockbuster maybe that was a poor choice of words. | Player | L or S | Symbol | $ Open | $ Close | % Close | | kadee77 | L | SQ | $62.1700 | $71.6600 | 15.26% | | Ombud | L | CUK | $8.1300 | $9.2700 | 14.02% | | BenchMark | L | QQQ | $265.7500 | $287.9600 | 8.36% | | clarkrl2 | L | VOYA | $67.4500 | $68.2800 | 1.23% | | djAdvocate | S | ACGL | $57.0300 | $56.7700 | 0.46% | | uncle.23 | L | VTRU | $23.0000 | $22.0000 | -4.35% |
