Closing Thoughts

The theme came back after a gap of 7 days, and this episode had lasted 1 day as of Apr 19. The next question is whether Construction Majors extends its streak beyond 1 session.

Breadth also matters, with 4 of 5 stocks up this session. Another open question is whether the first-quarter earnings hopes cited for the leader hold up when results arrive.
