Investment: Five graphics show: This is how 450,000 Germans invested in July
Exclusive data from broker Flatex shows: Three stocks were bought particularly frequently, on the other hand, investors withdrew a lot of money from an entire sector.
In July, 450,000 German customers of the online broker Flatex adjusted their investment portfolios, according to exclusive data obtained by Handelsblatt. Among the 200 largest equity positions, 21 showed net inflows of more than six percent. The highest inflow came from shares of a German company, accounting for 48 percent of the total.
Flatexdegiro analyzed the portfolios of all German customers to reach this conclusion. The analysis revealed that equities still make up the most common asset, with 45.7 percent of the invested wealth. Baskets of index funds (ETFs) followed, comprising 44 percent of the investments. While ETFs managed to generate a slight gain of 0.4 percent in July, the individual equity positions suffered a loss of 3.1 percent.
The study also highlights that investors were particularly focused on a specific industry, while another sector experienced net outflows of nearly seven percent.
