Stueck bzw. Anteile bzw. Whg. in 1,000

In other words, the entries under this heading can either be the number of units or shares, or a monetary amount specified in thousands of whatever. If the entries here read STK, this would indeed suggest units.

Notes to answerer
Asker: currency sounds likely. Though the entries right under this head read as STK, which I presume to be stueck.
