The trend was the same on leading European stock exchanges where it was traded in line with Stockholm.
Pharmaceutical manufacturer Astra Zeneca fell barely noticeably with a loss just below zero, despite Trump threatening with 100-percent tariffs on pharmaceuticals. The threat is however imprecise and the tariffs are conditional on the company not investing in production in the USA.
A clearer setback was experienced by telecom equipment manufacturer Ericsson and industrial company Atlas Copco, down 1.8 percent and 1.4 percent respectively.
Truck manufacturers are also threatened by new tariffs. But AB Volvo's share rose – up by 3.4 percent. This as the company, unlike competitors such as Scania owner Traton, is not dependent on production facilities in Mexico in the manufacturing for the US market. Traton's share fell in turn by 2.4 percent.
Specialist bank Noba has, ahead of the company's first trading day on the Stockholm stock exchange on Friday, announced that the share has been oversubscribed several times, to the subscription price of 70 kronor per share. During Friday, Noba's share rose to over 90 kronor.
Fitted furniture and cabinets for bathrooms and kitchens will also get new tariffs, according to Trump, who says that the large import of these goods threatens the USA's security.
The krona has fallen slightly against the dollar over the past 24 hours, but is stable against the euro. One dollar costs 9.42 kronor and one euro 11.02 kronor.
