Stocks back to 1996 level

The stock of finished goods and unfinished goods have been relatively stable throughout this year. The stocks fell considerably during last year - marked by less development activities in the North Sea and reduced activities in manufacturing. The total stock is about 25 per cent less than the top level reached in 1998.

Stock volume. Changes in one year. Per cent

In the 3rd quarter the total stocks were 11 per cent less - measured in current prices - than at the same time last year. The stocks are reduced by about 8 per cent - measured in current prices. For finished goods as well as unfinished goods, the stocks show an increase from the 2nd quarter to the 3rd quarter - measured in current and fixed prices. Analyses of the development trends do not, however, indicate any major changes in the stock situation.
