Closing Thoughts

Each theme shows a streak of 1, so the open question is whether the moves carry past Sep 9. Another Korean news report linked the KOSPI’s gain that day to a tailwind from China.

Among brokers, Daol Investment & Securities rose 10.79% on volume of 1270631. In cosmetics, theme leader Kukje Pharma traded 2523473 shares.
