Stock of quoted shares of households and financial corporations at an all-time high at the end of August, 2023

According to the data published on October 9, 2023, the market value of domestically issued quoted shares has been increasing continuously for months and by the end of August - after last year's decline - again exceeded HUF 10,000 billion. Thanks to the favourable change in exchange rates, the value of the stock owned by households and financial corporations reached a historical record. In August, foreigners bought more shares than they sold on the market of quoted shares, while households and corporations were mostly sellers.
