What to Watch Next Day
- Both markets fell sharply (KOSPI -1.23%, KOSDAQ -2.70%), so check whether this reflects a macro shock. The strength of any bounce next day will be a hinge for trend assessment.
- Top 3 themes averaged +3.10%, showing clear fund allocation. Trend-following trades may be meaningful, but chasing requires staggered entries.
- Bottom 3 themes averaged -4.52%, indicating concentrated weakness. Short-term oversold bounces are possible, but do not assume a trend reversal.
Avoid making trading decisions from a single trading-day data point. Combine trends of 5 trading days or more with macro shifts for judgment.
