The Bulgarian stock market closed in positive territory on Wednesday, as investor activity continued to improve toward the end of both the month and the year. SOFIX gained 0.34%, finishing the session at 1 138.81 points. The advance was driven primarily by increased interest in Elana Agrocredit (EAC, BGN 1.08, +2.86%), as well as continued strong trading in Sopharma (SFA, BGN 2.89, +1.40%), which has been among the most actively traded shares in recent weeks. Additional support for the index cam...
The Bulgarian equity market kept its recent upward trend, adding another meaningful portion to the weekly gains for all major indexes. SOFIX (1 108.63, +1.20%) recorded a new 18-year high, once again driven by Doverie (DUH, BGN 11.60, +9.43%) at the top of the leader board. The increasing investor interest ahead of the upcoming switch from BGN to EUR continued to attract additional participation, with Sopharma (SFA, BGN 2.78, +1.83%) and Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.71, +1.43%) standing out in this s...
The Bulgarian equity market faced a broader-based session at the start of December, resulting in mixed moves across the major indexes.

The daily turnover continued to exceed the 3-month average on a broader front — a tre...

The Bulgarian equities inched higher on Friday, recovering most of the previous session’s losses and closing the week with modest gains. A rebound in Advance Terrafund (ATER, BGN 2.67, +1.91%) and a steady bid in Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 56.40, +1.44%) helped to lift all major indexes, with SOFIX (1 087.77, +0.14%) leading the advance. Trading volumes were broadly unchanged from the prior session, remaining subdued for the season. Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.70, 0.00%) and Eurohold (EUBG, BGN 1.90, +...
The macro backdrop entering 2026E remains broadly supportive for high-dividend strategies across Emerging Europe and the frontier markets, but the opportunity set has clearly narrowed. After a year of sharp repricing across the WOOD universe, the high dividend conditions of 2024-25 have largely disappeared, as a result of many sectors rerating materially. As a result, high-dividend exposure is no longer a broad regional trade: the most compelling opportunities are now concentrated. However, the ...
Bulgarian equities ended the week firmly on the negative side, with most major indices posting declines as investors reassessed their positions amid heightened volatility across global markets. The local blue-chip index SOFIX slipped by 0.7% to close at 1 071.8 points, as the broader BGBX40 (192.56, -0.8%) and BGTR30 (941.65, -0.7%) mirrored the overall downward trend. Among the stocks we track, the top performers were Trace Group Hold (T57, BGN 5.20, +4.0%), the consistently strong Shelly Group...
All major indexes closed Friday’s session on negative territory, with SOFIX (1 071.88, -1.11%) underperforming, while BGBX40 (192.56, -0.77%) and BGTR30 (941.65, -0.39%) saw comparatively milder declines as light-volume trades in several mid-cap names softened the downside. Eurohold Bulgaria (EUBG, BGN 1.83, -4.69%), coming off a week of elevated volatility, slipped back toward early-week levels on thin turnover and topped the list of decliners on the Bulgarian Stock Exchange. Trading activity r...
