LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--FXCM Group, LLC ("FXCM Group' or 'FXCM'), the leading international provider of online foreign exchange trading, CFD trading and related services, is today releasing its data of most popular instruments for the month of December in its Single Share CFD and proprietary Stock Basket product lines.
FXCM offers fractional single share trading with no commission fees* on leading companies from the US, UK, France, Germany, The Netherlands, Hong Kong and Australia. FXCM's stock basket products combine the shares of multiple companies from one sector into a single tradeable instrument. The company currently boasts a portfolio of 16 stock baskets. The list of companies and weightings is available on FXCM's stock basket website ().
December is a festive month where we see increased consumer spending and travel. In addition to the traditional winter holidays, this December hosted the world's largest sporting event, the FIFA World Cup. Therefore, perhaps predictably, online retailers Amazon and Alibaba climbed up the list of the most traded stocks at FXCM. Tesla remained the most traded instrument despite its poor performance and was joined by Chinese electric car manufacturers Nio and most notably Xpeng which both joined the top 10 last month along with cryptocurrency giant, Coinbase.
US and China Tech baskets led the way, as they did in November. The most significant changes of note were the renewed interest in the Esports basket, which rose to second spot despite being outside the top 10 previously and interest in another newcomer, the Travel Basket, which was an unsurprising riser over the holiday season.
