Closing Thoughts
Both themes are on a streak of 1. One question is whether Apparel OEM holds up past its first day, since a Korean news report tied the move to the currency.
For Car Majors, the gap of 16 days shows the theme comes and goes. The next sessions will show whether Kia and Hyundai Motor keep rising together.
