Closing Thoughts

The Defense & War episode in the data runs 3 days, from Jan 16 to Jan 18. The open question is whether the next session keeps 9 of 9 stocks rising.

Integrated Logistics also rose across the board, with 8 of 8 stocks up, but its average change was only 1.78%. The open question is whether Shipping’s one-day return spreads into logistics.
