Has the code from the example on Holiday Study III / IV (2005) been simplified by any chance?

Thanks.

Simplified in what sense? Do you mean translated to C# for WL6? (afaik, not yet)

Is there an easier way than that program to find performance of S&P 500 around elections for example.

around = 1 month after or month before.

Thanks.
