Trading volume fetched 22.9 million shares

Trading value was modest, however, reaching only 45.8 per cent of Thursday's level at VND292.55 billion ($13.9 million). Trading volume fetched 22.9 million shares.

Source: "Blue chips help boost VN-Index", VNS.

Shouldn't it be "Trading volume fetched 22.9 million"?
Thank you.
