FAQ Page 4 - Question 38

Q: Should I take notice of the London stockmarket when there's a US public holiday?

A: At least 80% of the time you'll find that London as well as continental Europe uses a US holiday as an excuse for a very quiet day with many brokers and market professionals taking the day off. Of course you should always check what the actual holiday is because a major American holiday like 4th July or Thanksgiving will mean a much slower market than say Presidents Day.

To sum up, use an American holiday as an excuse to do something else.
