"Russia day" - NYSE

Evidently there's a day set aside every year where Russia comes to the New York Stock Exchange to drum up investment. 
The New York Stock Exchange and Goodwin Procter are lending their credibility to the effort to entice American investors into investing in the Russian economy. On November 18, 2013, the NYSE will host Russia Day, when leading Russian government officials — some of them the very architects of Russia's homophobic law banning any gay-positive speech and tacitly encouraging violence against LGBT Russians — will ring the closing bell at the stock exchange, to sickening applause from NYSE traders. That same day, Goodwin Procter, a major New York City law firm, will host a high-profile investment seminar called Russia Forum NY. more
This may be a regular yearly event, but surely this year there must be serious questions about investing in Russia. I've embeded this thingo from the site:

And here's the video linked on the site:
