Closing Thoughts
Headlines on Aug 29 linked Natural Gas Utilities to sharp rises in natural gas prices and the exchange rate, which pointed to higher city gas rates. The next question is whether that story stays in the news.
For Travel, one headline flagged the risk of a capital increase across the sector. Both themes came back after gaps of 5 and 6 days, so the open question is whether the streak lasts beyond 1 day.
