What to Watch Next Week

All six themes are flagged as recurring, so the open question is whether any of them posts a second strong day. Cement & Ready-Mix Concrete depends on how the creditor sale story develops.

Shipbuilding order news and any follow-up on Ban Ki-moon’s travel are the other threads in the data. Car Majors came last on the list, up 2.94% on May 10.
