holiday dates for past years

May 29th, 2004, 1:04 pm

Can anyone tell me where I can find a list (as far back as possible) for US and Target holidays for the last years? I have access to Bloomberg and Reuters but anything else will do.I would like to construct historic yield curves and would need that data.Any help is appreciated...ThanksD.

Since you have access to Bloomie, reckon they have a list of holidays there, not quite sure though if they've got historical holiday list... type CDR <GO> then select a country for list (Just checked my Bloomie, the list goes back to 1901ish). Hope this helps.
