🥀 Larvik

A tragic traffic accident on the E18 highway in Larvik has resulted in the death of a child. Emergency services responded to the scene, and the highway was closed following the severe incident that also left multiple people hospitalized. In political news, former Prime Minister Erna Solberg's new autobiography has been released, stirring discussion with revelations about a 'stock case' causing a marital crisis and her criticisms of Sylvi Listhaug. Solberg, a Member of the Storting, asserted that the Progress Party, led by Sylvi Listhaug (Leader of the Opposition), consistently acted independently. Economically, Aker BP is set to see a significant share sale by BP. Meanwhile, the Oslo housing market is experiencing a shift away from bidding wars towards 'cold' auctions, and experts are issuing interest rate warnings while also suggesting the peak may have been reached. On a positive note, Autostore has exceeded expectations with strong third-quarter earnings.
