what is "global market"?
In QuantLib[XL] you have many holiday calendars for many different
markets/exchanges. You can combine them using JoinCalendar.

brainstorming, crystal balls, on-site volunteers, web sites, info
providers, brokers, etc. ;-)

Thanks for your reply.  

When I refer to global markets, I simply mean that I need market data for a
variety of exchanges, not simply US markets or European markets, etc.

I take it you're not sure of the source for this holiday information?  I ask
simply because this holiday information will affect my trading and I need to
be confident in its accuracy.  Can anyone shed some light on this?    

Regards,
Chris
