The Bulgarian equities posted a mixed performance on the first trading day of the week, with turnover coming in below the YtD average. The main indices reflected the subdued activity, recording marginal gains in a narrow range between 0.01% and 0.06%. BGREIT (232.60) was the only index to finish lower, pressured by weakness in real estate names such as Bulgarian Real Estate Fund (BREF, EUR 2.70, -1.46%) and Advance Terrafund (ATER, EUR 1.395, -1.06%). The modest positive bias in SOFIX (1 354.69,...

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 final session of the last full trading week before year-end closed on a positive note for the Bulgarian equity market, reflecting the constructive sentiment observed in recent days. Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.745, +2.76%) and Sirma Group (SGH, BGN 1.86, +6.29%) contributed the most to SOFIX (1 148.45, +0.45%), which rewrote its 18-year high.

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.

Wiser Technologies (WISR, BGN 4.80, -2.04%) and First Investment Bank (FIB, BGN 5.72, -1.72%) led the declines within the benchmark. In contrast, the broader indexes edged higher, with BGBX40 (200.94, +0.07%) and BGTR30 (979.99, +0.02%) benefiting from low-volume advances in Sofia Commerce (SCOM, BGN 5.00, +9.17%) and Hydraulic El...

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.

Market activity remained moderate for the season and co...
The Bulgarian stock market ended the previous week on a positive note, with the sole exception of the sector index BGREIT (226.49, -0.6%), which reflected the weaker performance of Advance Terrafund (ATER, BGN 2.75, -1.8%).

Both stocks were also among the top gainers in FFBH’s li...

Bulgarian Real Estate Fund (BREF, BGN 5.10, +2.41%) lifted SOFIX (1 070.88, +0.67%), which led the gains among the major indexes and drew additional buying interest in First Investment Bank (FIB, BGN 5.10, +1.59%) and Bulgarian Stock Exchange (BSE, BGN 10.90, +1.87%). Light-volume trades with Albena (ALB, BGN 26.20, -2.96%), Speedy (SPDY, BGN 185.00, -4.15%), and Petr...

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...

Wiser (WISR, BGN 5.85, +3.54%) registered large move with insignificant daily turnover, which was fully offset by the step back of Bulgarian Real Estate Fund (BREF, BGN 5.20, -1.89%), Sirma Group Holding (SGH, BGN 1.38, -1.43%) and the heavy member Shelly (SLYG, EUR 50.60, -0.39%).
