The Stockholm stock exchange continues, like other stock exchanges in the world, to keep the mood up despite numerous tariff games from the USA and ongoing war.

The pharmaceutical company Astra Zeneca takes the lead on the large company list OMXS30 and is up 1.5 percent. The major banks are also going upwards in the morning: SEB is plus 0.7 percent, Swedbank is up 0.6 percent and Nordea is at plus 0.5.

It goes worse on Monday morning for the defense conglomerate Saab which backs down 3 percent.

During the night, Asia's stock exchanges, with the exception of Tokyo which is closed for holiday, have risen cautiously. In Hong Kong, the Hang Seng index is up 0.1 percent.

Last week ended with broad increases on the New York stock exchange. Calculated over the entire past week, S&P 500 rose 2.4 percent, Dow Jones 1.4 percent and Nasdaq 3.8 percent.

A dollar costs on Monday morning 9.55 kronor and a euro costs 11.14 kronor.
