Closing Thoughts
A same-day Korean news report tied the Duty Free gains to hopes that business license terms could be extended. Lotte Shopping rose only 1.5%.
Both episodes began and ended on 2016-03-08, lasting 1 day each. The open question is whether the Cybersecurity and Duty Free moves continue in later sessions.
