What to Watch Next Week

Construction Majors goes into next week still marked as running after 2 strong days. The open question is whether HDC Holdings and Welcron Hantec stay in front of the theme.

For Securities Brokers, a Korean news report on Jan 21 cited a Meritz note about fast growth in mid-to-large batteries. The data does not link that report to the Jan 22 move.
