Closing Thoughts

Both themes came back after gaps of 24 and 52 days, and so far each run has lasted a single day. The next thing to watch is whether either streak of 1 continues past Oct 12.

A same-day Korean news report featured the customer-first asset management service at Samsung Securities. Another Korean news report covered a brokerage note on S-Oil’s third-quarter refining results.
