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,...
The positive sentiment on the Bulgarian Stock Exchange weakened on Thursday, pushing all major indexes into negative territory, with SOFIX (1 385.46, -1.40%) recording the steepest decline.

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 equity market posted a solid start to the week, with SOFIX (1 402.30, +1.06%) leading the advance, followed by BGBX40 (243.57, +0.91%), BGTR30 (1 125.05, +1.05%), and BGTREIT (233.46, +0.46%). Ten out of fifteen constituents in the benchmark closed higher, led by the latest momentum names Chimimport (CHIM, EUR 0.60, +7.14%) and Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 69.00, +4.55%). Investor sentiment improved compared to the end of last week, although trading volumes remained below the 15-day ave...
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 retreated within a narrow range, with weakness concentrated among recent gainers, pushing SOFIX (1 134.96, -0.19%) into negative territory. 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...

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.

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%). The leading local benchmark SOFIX gained 0.8% to close at 1 079.33, supported by strong upward moves from heavyweights Eurohold Bulgaria (EUBG, BGN 1.94, +7.8%) and the high-growth Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 54.00, +5.5%). Both stocks were also among the top gainers in FFBH’s li...
The Bulgarian equity market showed resilience on Tuesday, with the major indexes closing in positive territory, advancing between 0.21% and 0.63%. SOFIX (1 073.87, +0.63%) outperformed, supported by gains in Central Cooperative Bank (CCB, BGN 1.70, +2.41%) and Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 53.00, +1.53%). Monbat (MONB, BGN 1.89, +3.85%) and Zaharni Zavodi (ZHBG, BGN 0.12, +4.35%) led on a broader base, though their influence was limited by light-volume trades. Weakness in Advance Terrafund (ATER, BGN ...
The Bulgarian equity market experienced a volatile session, though the final outcome remained moderate compared to recent levels. 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 lost momentum on Monday, sending the main indexes in mixed directions. SOFIX (1 069.46, -0.33%) slipped as weakness in the tech sector, led by Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 52.80, -0.75%), Sirma Group (SGH, BGN 1.53, -0.65%), and Wiser Technologies (WISR, BGN 5.00, -0.99%), weighed on the benchmark. The broader BGTR30 (946.97, +0.21%) outperformed, supported by Synthetica (SYN, BGN 84.50, +11.18%), which surged after a block trade was registered at BGN 81.00. Tchaikapharma ...
The Bulgarian equity market opened on a lower note on Friday, pressured by the placement of a 2.5% stake in Bulgarian Stock Exchange (BSE, BGN 10.80, -4.42%) at a price well below the market level. The discount-driven sale widened declines through the session, sending the major indexes lower. SOFIX (1 068.14) slipped below its 50-day moving average, as a 2.30% gain in Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 53.40, +2.30%) was not enough to offset losses elsewhere. Trading activity remained subdued, with BSE alo...
Huge opposite move of SOFIX (1 051.29, -0.12%) members fixed the main index almost unchanged on Wednesday. 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%). All other indexes lost altitude but BGREIT (232.60, -0.53%) lost the most, reflecting the negative move of mai...
Selling pressure in key constituents Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.715, -2.05%) and Sopharma (SFA, BGN 2.44, -0.41%) nudged the SOFIX slightly lower by 0.03% to 1 042.97 on Wednesday. In contrast, the broader indexes outperformed, supported by gains in M+S Hydraulic (MSH, BGN 10.20, +2.51%) and Stara Planina Hold (SPH, BGN 9.30, +5.08%). The BGBX40 rose 0.21% to 192.00, while the BGTR30 added 0.19% to 951.29. Turnover remained well above average, driven in part by activity in less frequently traded st...
Weekly turnover of BGN 32m doubled last week compared to the average YTD, while almost all local indexes remained unchanged except BGREIT 323.91 (+0.8%), which registered an insignificant positive move. Vacation season and the forthcoming release of H1 financial reports restrained investors’ activity, while the block trades and cash management ruled the trading. This week we will be closely monitoring the financial reports that are due to be published by Thursday, especially the industrial compa...
A mixed trading session fixed SOFIX (1 045.48, +0.18%) positive.

Advance Terrafund (ATER, BGN 2.98, -0.67%) stepped back but BGREIT (231.19, +0.06%) closed in the green zone. Overall liquidity re...

The Bulgarian Stock Exchange indexes weakened on Tuesday, with SOFIX slipping by 0.38% to close at 1 053.22. Over two-thirds of the benchmark turnover came from Sopharma (SFA, BGN 2.60, -2.26%) as the stock price suffered increased selling pressure.

The Bulgarian stock market did not manage to find support during the past week and indexes finished the week mainly on the red side, as the benchmark SOFIX (1007.57, +0.1%) was the only one in green. Three index members – Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 50.20, +5.7%), Wiser (WISR, BGN 5.40, +1.9%) and Sopharma Trading (SFT, BGN 5.80, +0.9%) were on the top of the gainers within our list of selected securities.
