Are markets open on Columbus/Indigenous Peoples' Day? (US10Y:)

Stock markets maintain regular trading hours on Columbus Day and Indigenous Peoples' Day, making an exception as the equities exchanges stay open while other federal institutions close. Equity investors can trade normally on major exchanges including the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq. However, banking institutions, postal services, and bond markets observe closures for the federal holiday. This juxtaposition creates a split schedule where financial equities continue normal operations despite the federal holiday designation.
