Slightly lower activity in December – Frontline most traded

Our trading data shows that private investors reduced their activity levels in December but bought shares for a larger amount than was sold.

And this: In addition to the regular monthly update, we have now in January also set up a top list of the 10 most traded shares for the entire year of 2024

Frontline was the most traded share, DNB was the most bought and Tesla was the most sold share in December. For the year, the Equinor, Norwegian and Kongsberg Gruppen were the most traded shares in our online equity trading.

Trading data for December

All the data are based on trading activity performed in the last month via both DNB’s equity trading service online and in the Spare app. The top lists are sorted either based on the number of transactions (buy and sell), net volume (the total amount bought minus the total amount sold), or gross volume (the total amount bought and sold).
