Closing Thoughts

The theme came back after a gap of 115 days, and this run has lasted 1 day so far. The next sessions will show whether the move continues past a single day.

The leader’s 14.99% gain was far larger than the moves in the rest of the group. Later coverage of the earnings news may show whether the gains spread more evenly across the theme.
