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 ...
Huge bid/ask spreads and absence of news fixed SOFIX (903.53, -0.79%) negative on Monday. Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 37.30, -1.58%), Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.725, -2.68%) and Sopharma (SFA, BGN 5.74, -1.37%) retreated with small daily turnover. The gambling company Telematic Interactive Bulgaria (TIB, BGN 22.00, +0.92%) and Doverie United Holding (DUH, BGN 7.98, +0.25%) moved north driven by speculative trades on the last trading date of the month. BGREIT (214.08, -0.09%) also stepped back, reflecti...
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.
The wave of buying interest slowly gained speed on Tuesday and settled the major indexes on the positive side. Sirma Group (SGH, 1.07, +7.00%) led the advancers list once again and boosted SOFIX (899.92, +0.25%) close to psychological level of 900 point. Eleven Capital (11C, BGN 15.20, +2.70%) and M+S Hydraulic (MSH, BGN 9.45, +2.72%) supported the broad indexes BGTR30 (871.17, +0.43%) and BGBX40 (172.24, +0.22%). The daily volume improved moderately too as more names participated in the trading...
The Bulgarian stock market remained volatile over the past week, as the benchmark SOFIX dropped 0.8% and all other major indexes closed down, ranging from -0.5% to -1.4%. The trading activity was weak, as block deals with some unpopular names boosted the volumes (+105.1% YTD) and the turnover (+51.6% YTD) higher than average numbers. The worst performer in our list of selected securities was Telelink Business Services Group (TBS, BGN 9.65, -12.3%), followed by SOFIX members Agria Group (AGH, BGN...
SOFIX (896.88, +0.09%) and BGBX40 (171.79, +0.01%) closed on a note higher on Wednesday, though the daily impact could be stronger without the selling pressure on Central Cooperative Bank (CCB, BGN 1.60, -2.44%) and Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.715, -2.05%), which placed the bank on the top loser list for second day in a row in the large cap space. The positive bias came from buy-the-dip interest in First Investment Bank (FIB, BGN 3.98, +3.11%), Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 36.20, +1.97) and Agria Group (...
For a third consecutive trading session SOFIX (896.93, -0.62%) lost ground reflecting the drop of Agria Group Holding (AGH, BGN 20.90, -5.00%) after it was announced that the company will leave the main index. Financial and tech sector also closed in the red zone as Central Cooperative Bank (CCB, BGN 1.64, -4.09%), First Investment Bank (FIB, BGN 3.86, -3.50%) and Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 35.50, -1.93%) suffered from selling pressure on Tuesday. Daily gainer Bulgarian Stock Exchange (BSE, BGN 7.9...
The Bulgarian stock market ended the week with no clear direction, while the global markets remained on a volatile note, with investors increasingly concerned on heightened US policy uncertainty. The leading local benchmark SOFIX lost 0.1% to settle at 903.11, as all other major indexes kept to tighter range from 0.0% to 0.5%. An activated share buyback procedure by Telelink Business Services Group (TBS, BGN 11.00, +11.7%) put the name of the company on the top of the gainers in our list of sele...
The Bulgarian equity market logged gains across the board on Wednesday with fresh record highs for the main indexes. SOFIX (907.14) rose by 1.49%, while BGBX40 (172.90) and BGTR30 (872.09) jumped by 0.81% and 0.67%, respectively. The buying interest in Bulgarian Stock Exchange (BSE, BGN 7.95, +3.25%), Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.75, +4.17%) and Smart Organic (SO, BGN 26.40,+2.33%) after the positive financial data exceeded the 3-months average turnover and attracted more activity around the indexes’...
The Bulgarian market had a rough showing on Friday though the initial selling pressure in the early hours was replaced by more optimistic price actions at the end on the session. The major indexes settled mixed as Agria Group (AGH, BGN 20.40, -2.86%) and the heavy member Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 37.50, -0.53%) weighed on the indexes, while M+S Hydraulic (MSH, BGN 9.35, +2.19%) and Smart Organic (SO, BGN 26.20, +2.34%) recovered the losses on the opposite side. SOFIX (904.25, -0.13%) slipped below...
Despite of the drop of the heaviest index members SOFIX (905.43, +0.77%) crossed 905 psychological level on Thursday. Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 37.70, -1.57%) and Bulgarian Real Estate Fund (BREF, BGN 4.18, -0.95%) weighed on the main index but the negative impact was fully offset by Eurohold (EUBG, BGN 1.91, +5.52%), Central Cooperative Bank (CCB, BGN 1.70, +3.66%) and Agria (AGH, BGN 21.00, +2.44%). Overall liquidity remained poor as most Q4 2025 results show moderate performance.
There was some increased activity under the surface on a broad range of sectors, though the main indexes settled near previous session’s levels. Sirma Group (SGH, BGN 0.97, +2.11%) led the gainers and together with increased value of the real estate sector, settled SOFIX (891.87, +0.33%) and BGREIT (213.56, +0.11%) with gains. The widened Bid/Ask spreads accelerated the negative effect of the light-volume trades with Smart Organic (SO, BGN 23.40, -4.88%) and Stara Planina (SPH, BGN 8.65, -3.89%)...
The Bulgarian equity market had some mixed showing on Wednesday, though the trading activity was concentrated more on current market levels, while the light volume trades dictated the direction. The bank sector, represented by First Investment Bank (FIB, BGN 4.30, +4.37%), Central Cooperative Bank (CCB, BGN 1.69, +3.68%) and Bulgarian American Credit Bank (BACB, BGN 12.50, +8.70%) gave the positive bias, while Elana Agrocredit (EAC, BGN 1.07, -2.73%) and M+S Hydraulic (MSH, BGN 9.10, -7.91%) led...
It seems that the light-volume trades continue to navigate the Bulgarian market, while the investors stay frozen in wait and see mode. Single trades with Central Cooperative Bank (CCB, BGN 1.68, -2.33%), Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 34.80, -0.29%) and Sopharma Buildings (SFB, BGN 12.50, -3.85%) placed all major indexes on the negative side in range between 0.05% and 0.25%. The trading activity was weak as close to half of the indexes’ members finished the session untraded.

The activity was broadly based with volumes close to 15-days ave...
The major indexes traded slightly higher on Wednesday, reflecting carryover upside momentum to build on recent gains.
