What to Watch Next Week

Each theme was strong on just a single day, so no move carried across sessions. The open question is whether Railways and the Apr 5 shipping cluster show strength again.

Yellow Dust & Fine Particulates / Air Purifiers / Masks was the lone new entry, averaging 8.95% on Apr 6. The coming sessions will show whether it appears again.
