Closing Thoughts

Every theme here is on a streak of 1 day, so it is still unclear whether these moves will carry into the next session. Shipbuilding headlines pointed to Ukraine risk, oil prices and ship prices.

Company news was behind some of the moves. STX Engine rose on a reported KRW 596 hundred million supply contract, and HS Hwasung gained amid a reported management dispute.
