– The development on the Nordic stock exchanges during April was flat. Oslo stood out with an increase of 5.5 %, mainly due to an increasing oil price. The report period showed a mixed picture, with many companies exceeding expectations but also weak results from companies such as Ericsson and the banks. The large amount of reports during the period have attracted the interest of the private savers, which in turn has led to a higher activity during April compared to the previous month, says Johan Tidestad, CCO of Nordnet.
