Closing Thoughts

Every theme on the list came back after a break, and each has a streak of 1 so far. Autonomous Driving returned after 69 days, while Life Insurance had been absent for 235 days.

A Korean news report tied the financial stocks’ gains to rising interest rates, so rate news is one thing to follow. For Autonomous Driving, the other marker is the date of the ADAS mandate.
