Closing Thoughts

All three themes returned after gaps of 17, 45 and 27 days, and each streak stands at just 1 day. The next question is whether Beauty & Cosmetics can extend its run past Oct 16.

How many stocks rose also differed by theme. Steel Majors had 2 of 3 stocks rising, with no change data for Dongkuk Holdings, while every stock in the other two themes rose.
