Stocks: Norway's sovereign wealth fund posts billion-euro loss
The sell-off in the bond market is also affecting the world's largest sovereign wealth fund. For the oil fund, this is already the second quarterly loss this year.
Norway's sovereign wealth fund posted a loss of 278 billion Norwegian kroner ($26.5 billion) in the third quarter. The fund, managed by Norges Bank Investment Management, achieved a return of -0.5% from July to September. The loss was attributed to weaker results from bond investments, which fell by 3.5% during the quarter. The fund's equity portfolio, however, gained 0.5% over the same period. Its total value is equivalent to $2.3 trillion.
