Vend was the most purchased share in September

Investors reduce energy holdings and buy broadly across the rest of the market

DNB's private investors were net sellers of shares for around NOK 1 billion in September. The sales were particularly concentrated in energy, where investors appear to be securing gains after strong price performance and high oil prices. On the buy side, the picture was far broader, with Vend Marketplaces and Telenor at the top. Overall, the trading suggests that investors are reducing exposure to areas that have performed strongly, whilst taking advantage of price falls and spreading new investments more broadly across the market.

The figures in the top lists

The figures below are based on trading activity last month in both DNB's share trading in online banking and in the Savings app. These are sorted either by number of transactions (purchases and sales), net volume (total amount purchased minus total amount sold), or gross volume (total amount purchased and sold).

To provide the most representative picture possible of the trading pattern among private investors, individual trades that deviate significantly from the other activity may be adjusted out of the statistics.
