DNB's share customers saw opportunities in the reporting season
Renewed tensions between the US and Iran contributed to a higher oil price in July. This provided support to the Oslo Stock Exchange, and particularly the energy sector. Investment economist Camilla Vik at DNB says that Equinor became the most sold share among DNB's private investors, followed by DNB and Frontline.
Took profits through July
Investors continued to secure profits through the summer month. - We saw this in Equinor, DNB and Frontline, which were sold in large volumes, says Vik. Many also used the strong performance to reduce exposure in some sectors and shares. During the same period, many bought into Telenor, Nordic Semiconductor, Norwegian Air Shuttle, Kongsberg Gruppen and Kitron.
Reporting triggered buying interest
July was characterised by the reporting season, and we see that several of the most purchased shares were companies that received negative price reactions to their quarterly numbers, says Vik. The investment economist believes this indicates that many saw the price falls as a good opportunity to buy companies they still believe in long term.
Among the international shares, SpaceX was once again the most traded by DNB's customers this month.
