Global macroeconomic and geopolitical challenges weighed on the Bulgarian economy over the past year, primarily through weaker external trade dynamics. Despite this, economic growth remained solid. Real GDP expanded by 2.8% in Q1, 3.5% in Q2, and 3.0% in Q3, supported almost entirely by strong domestic demand. Several factors underpinned this robust consumption growth with the most important being the growth of compensation and the euro transition effect. For 2026 the projections by major i...

The Bulgarian equities inched higher on Friday, recovering most of the previous session’s losses and closing the week with modest gains.

At the same time, Sopharma (SFA, BGN 2.72, +1.12%) and Sirma Group (SGH, BGN 1.72, +0.58%) attracted renewed interest after their latest financial results outperformed expectations. Both names were amo...
The Bulgarian equity market extended its midterm uptrend on Wednesday, despite the absence of major corporate catalysts or meaningful macro signals, with all key indexes adding to their recent gains. SOFIX (1 088.86) finished just a tick below its 18-year high, powered by a fresh advance in Bulgarian Stock Exchange (BSE, BGN 11.80, +4.42%), which remained the session’s standout performer. Strength across the producers’ segment, most notably Hydraulic Elements and Systems (HES, BGN 5.10, +2.82%) ...
