Eid al-Fitr never sits on a fixed date, and it isn't confirmed until the night before it happens. Unlike Christmas or New Year's Day, locked to the Gregorian calendar months in advance, the first day of Shawwal depends on whether a sliver of crescent moon

On April 7, 2025, the S&P 500 swung 8.5% in a single session, one of the widest intraday ranges since March 2020. It closed down just 0.2%. No circuit breaker fired. Five years earlier, in March 2020, the same index tripped the exact same 7%
IPO First Trading Day: What Time Does a New Stock Start Trading
Every IPO photo looks the same: executives on a balcony, a giant chrome button, the 9:30 AM bell. What that photo doesn't show is that the stock almost never starts trading at 9:30. Facebook was supposed to open at 11:00 in 2012 and didn't trade
