How we know this

Every layer this corpus carries, whether it exists for United States, how many records, how each is graded and when it was last looked at. The record rather than the data — enough to check a claim before relying on it.

Mixed sourcing

80 of 125 dated closures were read from the instrument itself; the rest come from independent secondary sources or published compilations. Across 100 named sources, and every row says which.

Contents are emitted when the dossier is compiled, so this list and the PDF cannot disagree.

Global Operating Calendar

United States beside every other market you work in — the weeks that work everywhere, where office hours overlap, and which dates are estimates rather than facts.

Open the Operating Calendar

The same dossier exists for all 241 jurisdictions, priced by depth rather than by which country it is — browse the dossiers.

We do not promise a calendar that never changes. Dates move: authorities declare holidays at short notice and publish corrections of their own. Every record here shows what stands behind it, and when a date changes we correct it, publish it, and tell the people it affects.
