Lower trading activity in December among private investors.
Vend Marketplace topped the purchase list in the Christmas month. The share has weakened significantly since the summer and is now trading in the new year at a level that makes the company valued lower than before. Vend has a clear ambition to be the leading player in digital marketplaces in the Nordics, and we believe the company’s already strong market position makes it challenging for new competitors to compete. Vend Marketplaces was included in Paul Harper’s recommended weekly portfolio in December and has been retained into January.
Frontline continues to be a highly active stock and was also the most traded stock in December. Nordic Semiconductor declined in December, and concerns about a potential “AI bubble” persisted throughout the month. The company is among the most prominent technology firms on the Oslo Stock Exchange, and many investors took advantage of the price drop as a buying opportunity.
On the selling side, the picture was largely characterized by profit-taking after periods of strong price performance.
The numbers in the top lists
All numbers 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).
