“Belanger Trading Daily: Smart Trading Starts With Great Research.” This time of year used to feel like a ghost town on the trading floor. Most traders were already in holiday mode—sipping whiskey, balancing their books, and counting down the days until New Year’s. But this last Friday wasn’t your typical sleepy session.
