What to Watch Next Week

All eight themes were flagged as recurring, but none held its strength for more than one day. Petrochemicals hit 3.28% and Oil Refining hit 1.57%, both on Aug 1.

Airlines ended the week up 2.99% on Aug 4 behind Jejuair, the same day Home Shopping peaked. The next thing to watch is whether those Friday moves carry into the following week.
