Closing Thoughts

Stem Cells came back after a gap of 34 days, though no stocks were listed for it. A same-day Korean news report linked the move to stem-cell cosmetics being supplied to China.

Telecom Carriers also came back after 225 days away, again with no stocks listed. The next thing to see is whether the Pharma streak runs past 2 days.
