      Markets are closed today to celebrate MLK Day. Tomorrow marks a ton of state legislation getting scheduled as well. Gonna suck.

        MLK Day is a US holiday. It’s not celebrated anywhere outside the United States of America.

        I know you’re replying to a photo of the S&P 500, but I’m equally confused about the statement since I’ve not seen any global market slump.

          Agreed. The German DAX eat largest at 1% down on close. Markets can swing that hard in a day for absolutely no reason so there’s no market sell off that I can see

          VWCE went from 150 eur to 146 in about 2 days, but yea, hardly a selloff in my books too…

      The S&P 500 is primarily US companies so a global sell off isn’t really going to affect it.
