Slim volume and wide bid/ask spreads fixed SOFIX at 578.65 (+0.11%). Selling pressure on Albena (6AB, BGN 41.80, -2.79%) and Sirma Group (SKK, BGN 0.715, -1.38%) weighed on the main index, but moderate increase of Doverie (5DOV, BGN 3.38, +1.2%) and Industrial Holding Bulgaria (4ID, BGN 1.05, +0.96%) offset the negative impact.
