Serious question : why do the American markets close?

Informational latency is as mitigated as it will ever be, the infastructure to run 24 hour markets is in place, and America is big enough for liquidity to never get too thin.

Hard mode? Don't say:
>"Traders want to go home"
>"big money wants to trade Tokyo/London/W/e"

I've been asking that same fucking question. The fact that markets and banks have the audacity to close is one of the biggest shams of the modern era, and it EASILY leads to speculation like this >>1063588

And while I won't go that far, I do want to ask: who the FUCK do these firms think they're fooling? No other industry on earth sleeps, but the financial industry decides it simply must? Fuck off.

yea sure kid. you can just make a pre-market bet like everyone else. people speculated before, during, and after hours and can cause big swings. can't handle it? don't bet your allowance on day-trading then

and industries like the factories making your dildos DO sleep.
