The Bulgarian equity market extended its decline on Thursday, with SOFIX (1 052.98, -0.72%) posting the steepest loss among the main indexes. Technology names weighed heavily, led by weakness in Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 53.60, -2.19%) and Sirma Group Holding (SGH, BGN 1.35, -2.88%). The pullback mirrored the softer global tone and was largely driven by large-cap stocks, while much of the broader market remained flat or inactive. Turnover was thin, with daily volumes at just 39% of the three-month...
The Bulgarian equity market advanced on Tuesday, led by heavyweight Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 53.80, +2.28%) and Holding Varna (HVAR, BGN 47.40, +1.72%). Broader support came from light-volume gains in EMKA (EMKA, BGN 1.99, +2.58%), Speedy (SPDY, BGN 198.00, +3.13%), and Stara Planina Hold (SPH, BGN 9.70, +2.11%), lifting BGBX40 (193.90, +0.69%) and BGTR30 (958.39, +0.35%). Turnover surged in the session, boosted by a significant block trade in Bulgarian Stock Exchange (BSE, BGN 9.35, -0.53%). Sec...
Profit-taking dominated the Bulgarian equity market on Wednesday, sending all major indexes lower in a range from 0.27% to 0.48%. Losses were broad-based with notable declines in Sirma Group (SGH, BGN 1.36, -4.23%), Bulgarian Stock Exchange (BSE, BGN 8.85, -2.21%), Bulgarian Real Estate Fund (BREF, BGN 5.10, -0.97%), and Trace Group (T57, BGN 6.10, -6.15%) weighing on sentiment. Trading activity picked up sharply with daily turnover climbing well above recent averages. Sopharma (SFA, BGN 2.46, +...
Slight decrease of SOFIX (1 039.68, -0.07%) reflected the drop of Telematic Interactive (TIB, BGN 22.20, -2.63%), Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.725, -2.03%) and Sirma Group Holding (SGH, BGN 1.42, -1.39%) on Monday. Support for the main index came from Wiser (WISR, BGN 5.65, +1.80%) and Bulgarian Real Estate Fund (BREF, BGN 5.15, +0.98%). Sopharma (SFA, BGN 2.44, -0.41%) registered BGN 1.92m daily turnover as a block trade with 770k shares was registered at BGN 2.43.
Moderate performance in Q2 reports published last week waned investors sentiment. Local indexes remained unchanged despite the increased weekly turnover (BGN 52.5m) mainly registered by block trades. Huge opposite moves of SOFIX members fixed the main index at 1040.37 (-0.1) as Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 48.60, -1.8%), Bulgarian Real Estate Fund (BREF, BGN 5.10, -1.9%) and CB Central Cooperative Bank (CCB, BGN 1.71, -1.7%) wiped out the positive moves of Wiser Technology (WISR, BGN 5.55, +2.8%), Ch...
SOFIX 1040.03 lost 0.28% on Thursday thus finishing the month in the red zone with moderate daily turnover. Heavy Shelly (SLYG, EUR 49.00, -1.61%) and Eurohold (EUBG, BGN 1.84, -0.54%) suffered from selling pressure and weighed on the main index. Daily loser Telematic Interactive (TIB, BGN 22.40, -2.61%) registered insignificant daily volume and speculative trades fixed the gambling operator in negative territory. Support for the main index came from Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.725, +1.40%) and Bulg...
Selling pressure in key constituents Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.715, -2.05%) and Sopharma (SFA, BGN 2.44, -0.41%) nudged the SOFIX slightly lower by 0.03% to 1 042.97 on Wednesday. In contrast, the broader indexes outperformed, supported by gains in M+S Hydraulic (MSH, BGN 10.20, +2.51%) and Stara Planina Hold (SPH, BGN 9.30, +5.08%). The BGBX40 rose 0.21% to 192.00, while the BGTR30 added 0.19% to 951.29. Turnover remained well above average, driven in part by activity in less frequently traded st...
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...
Huge selling pressure on Shelly (SLYG, EUR 49.50) and Bulgarian Real Estate Fund (BREF, BGN 5.20) settled both companies unchanged on Friday. SOFIX 1041.64 (-0.17%) slightly retreated on the ground of moderate daily turnover. Sopharma (SFA, BGN 2.43, -1.22%) ceased its positive wave during the week after the release of the new dividend shares for trading. Sirma Group (SGH, BGN 1.43, -0.69%) and Bulgarian Stock Exchange (BSE, BGN 9.00, -0.55%) also weighed on the main index by losing altitude wit...
A mixed trading session fixed SOFIX (1 045.48, +0.18%) positive. The north moves of Shelly (SLYG, EUR 49.90, +2.46%), Bulgarian Real Estate Fund (BREF, BGN 5.20, +0.97%) and Telematic Interactive (TIB, BGN 22.60, +0.89%) offset the negative impact of Wiser (WISR, BGN 5.15, -2.83%), First Investment Bank (FIB, BGN 5.06, -1.17%) and Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.74, -1.33%). Advance Terrafund (ATER, BGN 2.98, -0.67%) stepped back but BGREIT (231.19, +0.06%) closed in the green zone. Overall liquidity re...
The past week was negative for the major indexes on the Bulgarian Stock Exchange, with SOFIX (1 043.55) recording the largest decline, down 1.0%. Key underperformers from our watchlist that dragged the indexes lower included Neochim (NEOH, BGN 20.00, -7.4%), Stara Planina Hold (SPH, BGN 9.00, -7.2%), and Sopharma (SFA, BGN 2.49, -4.2%).

Wednesday’s session was subdued, with decliners outpacing advancers by a roughly 2-to-1 margin, pushing the major indexes into negative territory. SOFIX declined by 0.17% to 1 051.45, weighed down by losses in Smart Organic (SO, BGN 31.80, -1.24%) and Advance Terrafund (ATER, BGN 2.96, -1.33%). On a positive note, Bulgarian Real Estate Fund (BREF, BGN 5.10, +2.41%) was among the top gainers, helping the BGREIT index to edge up by 0.21% to 229.95. Overall trading activity weakened, with volumes s...
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...
The Bulgarian equity market finished on a weak note on Thursday as trading activity remaining narrowly ranged with lower volumes. The main indexes ended in negative territory with declines ranging from -0.30% to -0.48%. BGTREIT (227.19, +0.33%) performed differently, supported by the advance of the Bulgarian Real Estate Fund (BREF, BGN 5.05, +1.41%). Wiser Technologies (WISR, BGN 5.10, -4.67%), Smart Organic (SO, BGN 32.00, -3.61%) and Agria Group (AGH, BGN 20.00, -3.85%) topped the laggards lis...
Yesterday was the first trading day of the third quarter, and it was dominated by a narrow range of large-cap names. The tech sector – represented by Wiser Technologies (WISR, BGN 5.15, -3.74%), Sirma Group (SGH, BGN 1.40, -2.78%), and Shelly (SLYG, EUR 47.60, -0.63%) – took a step back during the session, dragging SOFIX (1019.96) down by 0.51%. A small trade in Speedy (SPDY, BGN 202.00), amid a widened order book, registered an 8.02% gain for the courier company and helped push the broader inde...
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 Bulgarian benchmark index SOFIX climbed 1.12% to 1025.22, reaching a record 16-year high on the final trading day of the week. The rise was driven by strong performances from Bulgarian Real Estate Fund (BREF, BGN 4.94, +2.23%) and Sopharma (SFA, BGN 7.00, +6.06%). Meanwhile Neochim (NEOH, BGN 22.00, -2.65%) and Albena (ALB, BGN 26.20, -2.96%) traded lightly and curbed the broader market’s momentum. As a result, BGBX40 and BGTR30 posted modest gains of 1.17% (188.81) and 0.76% (942.08), respe...
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...
