Closing Thoughts

Each theme lasted only this one session, so the next few sessions will show whether the moves carry on. Banks had a short break before returning, while telecoms had been absent for much longer.

A same-day Korean news report explained why brokerages viewed SK Telecom favorably. Its volume of 1973497 shares gives a baseline for comparing later sessions.
