Most stock markets would be silent around the days of Christmas, New Year’s Day, Good Friday, Easter Monday and Labor Day. Of course, as each country would have its own Foundation or Independence day, those would be considered as holidays as well.
However, some markets follow some really unique holidays that do mark their own cultures. The bells in Japan’s stock market wouldn’t be ringing for Greenery Day in April 29, or for the day to mark Respect for the Aged every 16th of September. For China, the Army Day is a national holiday as well, and the start of the Midsummer’s Eve in Sweden means no trading activity for the day.
