Zika Virus was the only strong theme on 2016-01-29, and it was the theme’s first appearance. All 5 of its stocks rose, for an average change of 19.93%.

The leader, Myungmoon Pharm, rose 30.03% to close at 3555 on volume of 9285617 shares. Billions gained 29.82% and GeneOne Life Science rose 28.57%.

The gains were smaller further down the list, with DaeryukCan up 8.03% and Dongwha Pharm up 3.18%. A same-day Korean news report linked the rally to worries that the virus was spreading.

Closing Thoughts

This was the first day of the episode, with a streak of 1, so the theme has no track record yet. The next session will show whether the move holds or fades after one day.

Volume is another thing to track: Myungmoon Pharm traded 9285617 shares, far more than any other stock in the group. Changes in the group’s trading volume may say as much as price moves do.
