Closing Thoughts

Every theme has a streak of 1, so each run is only one day old so far. One open question is whether Shipping, which came back after just 4 days, can stretch its move past a single session.

Trading volume also stood out. China Crystal New Material Holdings traded 9031630 shares and Daechang traded 8752467. The next sessions will show whether that level of activity holds.
