(Vienna) The international market segment is further expanded: 40 new securities are included to continuous trading on the Vienna Stock Exchange as of today. More than half of these blue chips originate from the USA. With this expansion, Spotify Technology (audio streaming) is the first Swedish stock to be included. The new additions also include CPI Property Group (real estate) and various cloud service providers such as Palo Alto Networks, Datadog and Veeva Systems. Companies that have become popular on social media in recent years as "meme stocks" are also represented with GameStop, AMC Entertainment and Bed Bath & Beyond.
"With its international listings the global market opens doors to the world. With the stocks from the European core indices that can be traded as of today, we are closing a gap of a number of companies that are in demand. The large selection as well as active and liquid trading have a high priority for us in the development of the segment," says Manuel Kurz, Deputy Head of Member Sales & Business Development.
The global market offers a choice of 800 stocks from 25 countries. Domestic investors benefit from advantages such as trading and settlement in euros and attractive terms. Market makers such as Lang & Schwarz ensure attractive prices and liquidity on both sides. The most traded stocks in November were Amazon (EUR 8.5 million), Meta (EUR 7.1 million) and ams (EUR 5.7 million). Real-time data can be accessed at low cost via Wiener Börse Live.
