What to Watch Next Week

Several themes were new this week, including Winter Season and LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas). Whether they show up again after Oct 23 is the next thing the data will tell.

Securities Brokers had a consecutive run of strength and peaked at 4.59% on Oct 23. The next thing to see is whether that streak carries into the coming week.
