It was a downbeat day on Tuesday and the major indexes lost in range between 0.93% to 0.39%. The negative price actions were driven by consolidated activity after the registration of new 15-year highs by the indexes on Monday. SOFIX (864.88) slipped the most by 0.93%, led by M+S Hydraulic (MSH, BGN 9.00, -5.26%), Bulgarian Stock Exchange (BSE, BGN 8.00, -4.76%) and Central Cooperative Bank (CCB, BGN 1.68, -2.33%) losses.

Positive start of the week raised SOFIX to 864.29 (+0.24%). Poor liquidity and big bid/ask spreads allowed huge fluctuations without significant daily volume. Shelly Group (SLYG, BGN 37.60, +3.87%) and Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.765, +2.00%) rose without corporate news while small speculative trades pushed down Doverie United Holding (DUH, BGN 8.50, -1.85%), Eurohold (EUBG, BGN 1.49, -1.32%) and Sirma Group Holding (SGH, BGN 1.14, -0.87%).

It was a quiet Wednesday session with mixed actions and poor volumes on narrow base. All major indexes settled on the positive side as the solid jump of top-weighted Sopharma (SFA, BGN 6.04, +3.07%) and Shelly Group (SLYG, BGN 69.00, +0.88%) provided the positive bias despite that the decliners advancers line was in equilibrium.

The major indexes closed with losses, reflecting the moderate activity of retails on Tuesday. SOFIX (863.60) fell 0.35%, while the broad indexes BGBX40 (171.72) and BGTR30 (851.69) took some advantage from Bianor Holding’s (BNR, BGN 5.30, +6.00%) and Billboard’s (BBRD, BGN 0.48, +15.38%) gains and decreased by 0.20% and 0.13% respectively.

Support for the main index came from Eurohold (EUBG, BGN 1.54, +2.67%) and Agria (AGH, BGN 23.50, +2.62%). Overall liquidity remained good but retail investors dominated the market and daily turnover of SOFIX reached BGN 0.69m.

The broad indexes BGTR30 (822.07, +0.31%) and BGBX40 (165.97, +0.31%) underperformed the benchmark indexes with significant part of untraded names and expectations for t...
