Market closings, a historical question. In today's LA times we read:
The four-day trading suspension has been the longest since at least 1933, when markets were closed in tandem with federally ordered bank closures during the Depression.

I have read elsewhere that the last time it was closed this long was 1929, and the Wall Street Journal said it was the longest closure since WWI. All these things cannot be true.

I am confident this is the longest closing since V-J day at the end of WWII, but where do we go before that?
