Were boutique banks open on July 5th?

I'm freaking out because I'm waiting to hear from a boutique bank I interviewed with late last week. Markets were closed yesterday, the 5th. Would a boutique bank have been open? Thanks and apologies if it's a stupid question.

JD, most banks, big or small, are technically closed when the market is closed. Here is a link to a site that lists the market holidays http://www.rightline.net/calendar/market-holidays.html

This really just means support staff and Sr bankers don't have to come into work which is why you wouldn't have heard anything yesterday. But don't expect to have any of these holidays off if you get a job as an analyst at an investment bank.
