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 Bulgarian equity market saw some sharp moves in the first day of the week but finally the main indexes finished with losses as the exception was BGREIT (220.53, +0.21%) supported by Advance Terrafund (ATER, BGN 2.83, +1.07%). The tech sector, represented by Shelly (SLYG, EUR 49.10, -2.19%), Wiser Technologies (WISR, BGN 5.25, -2.78%) and Sirma Group (SGH, BGN 1.37, -1.44%) met some profit taking action from the retail. The daily volumes barely reached 60% of the 3-months average though the t...
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.

The major indexes finished the week mixed as no conviction was seen from either buyers or sellers. The heavy members Shelly (SLYG, EUR 50.20, -1.18%) weighed on SOFIX (1007.57, -0.22%), and the benchmark index registered a loss despite the equilibrium in the advancer-decliner line, while Neochim (NEOH, BGN 23.00, +8.49%) boosted the broad indexes and BGTR30 (931.71) registered a 0.20% gain. The activity was moderate and the turnover within the SOFIX covered the 3-month average.
The Bulgarian stocks marked a positive week, while the global markets suffered pullbacks and volatility, as new threats were tapping the brakes on investor optimism. The local benchmark SOFIX added 2.6% to settle at 981.32 and the broader BGBX40 (183.32, +1.7%) and BGTR30 (922.11, +2.6%) moved similar. Three SOFIX members were the top gainers in our list of selected securities – the technology blue chips Sirma Group Holding (SGH, BGN 1.43, +19.2%) and Wiser Technologies (WISR, BGN 5.35, +7.4%) a...
SOFIX (987.54, -0.83%) lost altitude as most index members closed in the red zone on Wednesday.

Doverie United Holding (DUH, BGN 8.68, +0.23%) was the only SOFIX member that closed positive but registered insignificant daily turnover. BGREIT (219.07, -0.97%) also stepped bаck, reflecting the drop of Sopharma Bui...
The Bulgarian equity market had another strong showing on Wednesday and continued its upside trend, building on recent gains.

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...

The Bulgarian stocks ended the week with no clear direction, while the world equity markets recorded a relief rally, easing some of the growing tension over the past months and moving away from extreme pessimism. The leading local benchmark SOFIX added 0.3% to settle at 888.88, as all other major indexes kept to wider range from -0.2% to 0.8%. The industrial M+S Hydraulic (MSH, BGN 9.6, +4.9%) and the SOFIX member Sirma Group Holding (SGH, BGN 1.09, +3.8%) were on the top of the gainers in our l...

BGREIT (214.31, -0.15%) alone booked a loss as the negative price actions in Advance Terrafund (ATER, BGN 3.06, -1.29%) reflected on the REIT index. Trading activity was poor and the volumes continued...

The Bulgarian equity market slipped right out of the gate on Easter Holidays and the main indexes booked some losses. Decliners like Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.685, -2.84%) and Sirma Group (SGH, BGN 1.05, -2.78%) prevailed the advancers by 2-to-1 margin and ranked the main indexes as follows SOFIX (885.82, -0.15%), BGBX40 (169.95, -0.19%) and BGTR30 (865.83, -0.28%). First Investment Bank (FIB, BGN 4.06, +3.05%) and Smart Organic (SO, BGN 27.60, +1.47%) finished on the opposite side but the trading...
Low trading activity in widened Bid/Ask spreads caused mixed outcomes for the major indexes on Bulgarian equity market on the first day of the week. The surge of Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.695, +3.73%) was not enough to place SOFIX (879.45, -0.39%) above the surface as the decliners led by 6-to-1 margin the advancers in this session. The broad indexes took advantage from Bulmetal (BLMT, BGN 8.70, +2.35%), Gradus (GR6, BGN 1.09, +4.81%) and Stara Planina (SPH, BGN 8.50, +6.25%) and outperformed the ...
SOFIX (903.16, -0.04%) closed almost unchanged on Tuesday supported by the heavy member Sopharma (SFA BGN 5.80, +1.05%) and notable positive move of Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.75, +3.45%). Doverie United Holding (DUH, BGN 8.00, +0.25%) registered a block trade with 35K, which accounted for 60% of SOFIX daily turnover. Negative impact on the main index came from Smart Organic (SO, BGN 27.60, -1.43%) and Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 36.90, -1.07%) but both companies stepped back with poor daily volume.
Moderate increase of the weekly turnover did not bring significant price change as SOFIX 910.69 added 0.4% w-o-w while all the other indexes finished the week without change. Absence of corporate news and poor liquidity left a room for speculative trades with big daily fluctuations and insignificant volumes. Risk appetite raised Agria Group Holding (AGH, BGN 22.8, +5.3%) to the top place of the weekly gainers while profit taking placed Gradus (GR6, BGN 1.13, -7.4%) among the top weekly losers. N...
