Most themes ran as one-day episodes, and only Chicken (Poultry) has an episode extending to 2020-07-03. The open question is whether the other moves last beyond a single session.

Headlines focused on COVID-19 vaccine hopes. A Jul 1 piece linked gains in cosmetics, entertainment and casino stocks to a possible Hallyu-ban easing, while Casinos averaged a smaller 2.73%.
