Energy giant Dutch Shell, Transocean and CNH Industrial are the hottest stocks for securities lending in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, according to SunGard’s Astec Analytics.
Energy providers took the top-five spots as continuing turmoil in the oil market played havoc.
Investors have started to show a more bullish outlook to energy firms, which is reflected in a significant drop in borrowing demand for a lot of firms and a break in the steady decline of oil in the market.
On the other side of the Atlantic, technology firms were America’s most desirable securities.
Internet provider Yahoo claimed its first entry in SunGard hottest stocks chart following a 12-percent increase in borrowing demand since 1 September.
Regular entrant Ambarella returned for another week, as did Fitbit, after both tech firms suffer the effects of the on-going disinterest in wearable technology.
Solarcity, a solar panel provider, also retained its place among the top picks, although growing interest in the stock following a series of large-scale investments plans were announced means it may not be around for much longer.
Moving onto Asia Pacific, SunGard’s top picks were a mixed-bag of industries. Hyundai Motor Company featured for a second time after strike action was confirmed following a worker dispute over wages. The South Korea car manufacturer has seen borrowing interest for its stocks rise by 42 percent since September.
Sharp Corp, a Japanese tech giant, also took a top spot for a second time but a 10-percent drop in lending implies that short sellers are beginning to cover their positions.
Top places also went to Hong Kong-listed Prada SpA, Ezion Holdings and Guotai Junan International Holdings.
