The main reason investment companies underperformed the broader market on Monday is that many investors use these companies as liquidity regulators during significant market movements. This is according to Ålandsbanken, following yesterday's widespread price declines.

The bank remains positive on Investor, is neutral on Industrivärden, and cautious on Kinnevik. The fact that Kinnevik dropped nearly 10 percent is believed to be due to the higher risk level and the more limited liquidity of the stock.
