Closing Thoughts

Every theme had a streak of 1, so the next question is whether mRNA carries into a second session. A Korean news report said health authorities planned to discuss support for mRNA.

Jin Air led travel stocks even though Korean news reports said its first-quarter operating loss grew. Music & Entertainment, up 4.42% on average, and Shipbuilding, up 2.36%, also came back.
