Oslo Børs saw a slight decline of around 0.6 percent at the start of the week, with several of the most traded stocks falling in minutes after the market opened. The price of oil had dropped around 2.5 percent since Oslo Børs closed on Friday, with Brent crude trading at approximately $110.5 per barrel just before the market opened.

Bakkafrost presented its quarterly results ahead of the market opening on Monday, reporting revenue of 1.8 billion Danish krone and an operating profit of 245.3 million krone, according to Bloomberg estimates. The Norwegian company, which also has a significant presence in Scotland, killed 27,663 tonnes in the quarter, a 10 percent decrease from the third quarter of 2025.

The company expects to kill around 20,000 tonnes in Scotland this year, and around 28,000 tonnes in 2027, as reported in the quarterly statement. Shipping company Wallenius Wilhelmsen announced on Monday morning that they had entered into a three-year freight agreement with an Asian shipbuilder, valued at around 700 million dollars, according to a company filing.

The rate is at today's market level, according to the company. The agreement can be extended for two more years if both parties agree.
