Closing Thoughts
The Nuclear and Construction Majors episodes run through Sep 9, so the next test is whether they hold up. Daewoo Engineering & Construction, up 8.47%, sits in both themes.
Steel Pipe returned after an 83-day gap, with an average change of 2.18%. It is still unclear whether the steel groups will rise beyond a single session.
