The announcement of a US-EU trade deal failed to lift sentiment on the Bulgarian Stock Exchange, as investors remained largely in wait-and-see mode. SOFIX slipped 0.29% to 1 038.57, weighed down by losses in Sopharma (SFA, BGN 2.42, -0.41%) and Bulgarian Real Estate Fund (BREF, BGN 5.05, -2.88%). Trading activity centered around companies linked to Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.73, 0.00%), including Holding Varna (HVAR, BGN 47.20, 0.00%), Balkan and Sea Properties (BSP, BGN 24.20, 0.00%), and Syntheti...
Weekly turnover of BGN 32m doubled last week compared to the average YTD, while almost all local indexes remained unchanged except BGREIT 323.91 (+0.8%), which registered an insignificant positive move. Vacation season and the forthcoming release of H1 financial reports restrained investors’ activity, while the block trades and cash management ruled the trading. This week we will be closely monitoring the financial reports that are due to be published by Thursday, especially the industrial compa...
Bulgarian stocks were little changed in Thursday’s quiet session with light volumes keeping the main indexes flat. SOFIX slipped 0.05% to 1 043.42, with turnover at just 14% of the 3-month average. Sirma Group (SGH, BGN 1.44, +2.13%) and Smart Organic (SO, BGN 31.00, -1.90%) led the individual movers. Broader indexes BGBX40 (191.49, -0.04%) and BGTR30 (951.34, -0.04%) were also marginally lower, as losses in Bulmetal (BMTL, BGN 9.10, -2.15%) offset gains in Hydraulic Elements and Systems (HES, B...
The Bulgarian stock market marked a stable week with less volatility amid subdued trading activity, as all major indexes closed on green , ranging from 1.4% to 3.0%. Benchmark SOFIX added 3.0% to settle at 1054.19, reflecting the strong performance of the index members Sopharma (SFA, BGN 2.60, +9.9%) and the powerhouse Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 50.00, +5.5%). The top gainer within our list of selected companies was the industrial Stara Planina Hold (SPH, BGN 9.70, +13.5%), while the red side start...
The Bulgarian equity market ended Wednesday’s session on a positive note, led by strong performance from Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 48.90, +2.30%), following the release of robust H1 preliminary results. Bulgarian Stock Exchange (BSE, BGN 9.15, +2.81%) also contributed significantly to the upbeat sentiment. The benchmark index SOFIX advanced to a new 18-year high, closing at 1 032.04, supported by gains in key constituents. However, broader market indexes lagged slightly, weighed down by declines i...
The Bulgarian stock market edged slightly lower last week, as investor activity did not improve and there was no clear point for the market during ongoing summer season. The benchmark SOFIX retreated 0.2% to settle at 1023.43, as the broad ones- BGBX40 (188.48, -0.2%) and BGTR30 (938.83, -0.3%) performed the same. The weekly volume (-68.5%) showed weak performance, while the turnover (+50.7%) was pushed up by intense trade with bonds and some particular positions. The top gainers within our list...
A buying interest in Sopharma (SFA, BGN 7.20, +2.86%) and Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.715, +2.14%) balanced the negative moves of Shelly (SLYG, EUR 47.90, -2.64%) and Bulgarian Stock Exchange (BSE, BGN 9.10, -2.15%). As a result, SOFIX (1025.22) finished the session unchanged on the first trading day of the week. Monbat (MONB, BGN 2.26, -2.59%), M+S Hydraulic (MSH, BGN 9.60, -3.03%), and Speedy (SPDY, BGN 187.00, -7.43%) weighed on the broad indexes and BGBX40 (188.01, -0.42%) and BGTR30 (937.32, -0...
Green color and huge weekly turnover set SOFIX at 1025.22 (+1.8%) – level we haven’t seen since September 2008. Weekly turnover tripled and reached BGN 44m., compared to the average one YTD of BGN 15.6m. Main distributors for the increased volume were Doverie Unted Holding’s buy-back and Sopharma’s sales of its treasury shares. The week was highlighted also by the first IPO this year of Green Innovation which raised almost BGN 8m. on Tuesday.
The real estate sector led Thursday’s gains on the local stock exchange with Advance Terrafund (ATER, BGN 2.95, +2.08%) and Bulgarian Real Estate Fund (BREF, BGN 4.94, +2.07%) acting as key drivers. Their performance supported broad-based growth across all major indexes, which closed higher in a range between 0.46% and 1.35%. SOFIX added 0.53% to reach 1 013.89 points, supported by gains in Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 49.40, +0.61%). Meanwhile, the broader indexes also advanced: BGBX40 rose 0.46% to...
SOFIX (1 008.53) booked 0.43% gain and finished Wednesday’s session on a tick lower from the 16-year high as the widened Bid/Ask spreads allowed the retail to easily lift the prices of Advance Terrafund (ATER, BGN 2.89, +3.21%), Telematic Interactive (TIB, BGN 21.80, +2.59%), Smart Organic (SO, BGN 31.80, +2.58%) and Sirma Group (SGH, BGN 1.45, +2.84%). The broad Indexes BGBX40 (185.77, +0.05%) and BGTR30 (928.95, +0.07%) absorbed the drop of M+S Hydraulic (MSH, BGN 9.35, -5.56%) and Eleven Capi...
The Bulgarian equity market traded on a positive note throughout Tuesday’s session and the major indexes settled with gains in range between 0.09% and 0.21% while BGREIT (220.06, -0.21%) was an exception once again, following Advance Terrafund’s (ATER, BGN 2.80) slip by 1.06%. The positive bias came from names like Sirma Group (SGH, BGN 1.41, +2.92%), Eleven Capital (11C, BGN 15.50, +2.65%) and Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.71, +3.65%). The volumes remained low compared to 3-month average as the inves...
The Bulgarian stock market did not manage to find support during the past week and indexes finished the week mainly on the red side, as the benchmark SOFIX (1007.57, +0.1%) was the only one in green. Three index members – Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 50.20, +5.7%), Wiser (WISR, BGN 5.40, +1.9%) and Sopharma Trading (SFT, BGN 5.80, +0.9%) were on the top of the gainers within our list of selected securities. On the other side, Speedy (SPDY, BGN 190.00, -5.0%) and Alcomet (ALCM, BGN 5.95, -4.8%) lost t...
The Bulgarian equity market finished little changed on Wednesday as the buying efforts faded while the sellers did not take any convincing actions too. The major indexes settled with modest gains in range between 0.16% and 0.45% and volumes below than the 3-month average. Telematic Interactive (TIB, BGN 21.60, -2.70%) and Sopharma Properties (SFI, BGN 7.70, -4.70%) pared gains from previous session, while a moderate buying interest in Speedy (SPDY, BGN 200.00, +5.26%) and Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR...
Tuesday session was quiet with trading activity mostly on the sell side, though the major indexes shifted higher as the heavy member Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 49.30, +3.14%) defined the positive outcome for SOFIX (1 005.56, +0.29%) and the broad indexes BGBX40 (186.14, +0.22%) and BGTR30 (931.09, +0.10%). Modest volume trades in widened Bid/Ask spreads with Sirma Group (SGH, BGN 1.41, -2.08%) and Bulgarian Real Estate Fund (BREF, BGN 4.80, -2.04%) placed the names on the top of the laggards list, ...
The Bulgarian stock market continued the positive trend during the past week, as all major indexes closed on green, ranging from 0.1% to 1.4%. The benchmark SOFIX added 1.4% to settle at 1012.91, reflecting the impressive performance of the index members Doverie United Holding (DUH, BGN 9.28, +5.2%) and the powerhouse Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 49.90, +9.2%). The top gainer within our list of selected companies was industrial Stara Planina Hold (SPH, BGN 9.10, +11.0%), while the red side started wi...
SOFIX 1012.91 (+0.64%) grew on the back of Shelly (SLYG, BGN 49.90, +3.74%), Bulgarian Real Estate Fund (BREF, BGN 4.66, +1.30%) and Bulgarian Stock Exchange (BSE, BGN 9.60, +1.05%) on Friday. Negative impact on the main index came from the IT sector, as Sirma Group Holding (SGH, BGN 1.43, -1.38%) and Wiser (WISR, BGN 5.25, -0.94%) slipped without significant daily turnover. SOFIX registered a significant drop in liquidity as more than one third of the overall trading volume came from a single n...
For a third consecutive trading session SOFIX (1007.26, +0.79%) gained altitude and crossed the resistant level of 1000. Sirma Group Holding (SGH, BGN 1.54, +5.48%) and Shelly (SLYG, BGN 46.90, +2.96%) flew over the day while the most traded name Sopharma (SFA, BGN 6.76, +0.30%) moved slightly North registering a few block trades. Advance Terrafund (ATER, BGN 2.90, -0.68%) and Bulgarian Stock Exchange (BSE, BGN 9.50, -0.52%) booked negative trading days and slipped with insignificant daily volum...
SOFIX (999.39, +0.58%) closed a few ticks away from the psychological level of 1000, something we haven’t witnessed since 2008. The excellent Q1 financial results raised Doverie United Holding (DUH, BGN 9.00, +3.45%) while Sirma Group Holding (SGH, BGN 1.46, +2.10%) jumped on the back of buy-back buying power. Ex-dividend date weighed on Advance Terrafund (ATER, BGN 2.92, -2.01%) while Smart Organic (SO, BGN 31.20, -2.50%) and First Investment Bank (FIB, BGN 5.10, -1.54%) suffered from small spe...
The local stock market gained some steam last week and ended on a positive note, ranging from 0.8% to 3.2%. The benchmark SOFIX added 3.2% to settle at 956.86, strongly supported by the renewed buying interest in high-tech blue chip Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 42.80, +17.3%). The share became the weekly top gainer within our list of selected companies, followed by the less interesting Industrial Capital Holding (HIKA, BGN 2.56, +4.9%) and Monbat (MONB, BGN 2.60, +4.0%). On the other side, Speedy (SP...
Key names like First Investment Bank (FIB, BGN 4.37, -5.41%), Doverie (DUH, BGN 8.62, -2.27%) and Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.695, -2.11%) met some selling pressure on Friday and influenced the daily outcome of the major indexes. SOFIX (956.86) slipped the most, interrupting 9-session winning trend with 0.49% loss, while BGBX40 (180.32, -0.25%) and BGTR30 (898.68, -0.44%) partly balanced with the positive price actions of Eleven Capital (11C, BGN 14.80, +8.03%) and Bulgarian Stock Exchange (BSE, BGN...
