It’s a market holiday. (Sigh)
It’s a holiday, so the market is closed. Not here in Canada, but rather, it’s a holiday in the US.
Unfortunately, as a US equity investor (I know, I know, I’m missing out on opportunities locally and around the world. More on the later…), I am subject to the vagaries of the US holiday calendar. Somethings that works out great – last week, while I was home from work due to the Victoria Day holiday in Canada I was able to truly be an active participant in managing my portfolio. But often, that means that the market is silent for another day. Which really just makes weekends seem long in that “not so good” way. Who would have thought that was even possible.
Besides, I have RRSPs and a financial advisor who worry abour the “Canadian content” in my equity portfolio. Phew. Now if only I could convince him that, yes, really, Brazil is full of potential.
