What happens in IB if there is a government shutdown

At this point it seems very likely that by the end of the week there will be a government shutdown. They are estimating it to be go longer than the one prior of 37 days. What will happen in the banking industry if there is a government shutdown?

The longest gov't shutdown was only 30 days though - also the statutory waiting periods continue to run during shutdowns so only deals with active DOJ lawsuits might hit a month or less delay, the FTC/Antitrust divisions each keep a skeleton staff for any time-sensitive things

Overall a slight annoyance, but not the end of the world

 

Saepe quia quis eos quas incidunt sunt numquam temporibus. Et velit eos et doloremque alias est.
