What to Watch Next Week

Oil Refining is still a running theme. A Korean news report on Mar 29 linked refiners’ new highs to hopes for surprise earnings.

Pharma has had only one strong day so far, so it is not yet clear whether the move will last. The seven themes flat at 0.0% will show whether the rally spreads to more themes.
