The Bulgarian equity market delivered a relatively calm and subdued performance during the holiday-shortened week, as investors largely chose to remain on the sidelines, refraining from strong, market-driven actions. This lack of enthusiasm was evident across the board and the benchmark SOFIX index edged slightly higher, gaining 0.3% to close at 1 223.17 points. Similarly, the broader indices showed only marginal movements. The extended BGBX40 rose modestly to 211.20 points (+0.2%), while the BG...
After several negative trading sessions Wiser (WISR, EUR 2.20, +4.76%) jumped on Wednesday thus pushing SOFIX (1 212.58, +0.73%) to green territory. Doverie United Holding (DUH, EUR 5.90, +1.72%) and Shelly (SLYG, EUR 51.00, +1.59%) also advanced on the back of moderate daily volume while demand for Sopharma (SFA, EUR 1.75, +1.16%) did not find adequate supply and the company registered more than EUR 200K daily turnover. BGBX40 (208.97, +0.92%) jumped the most among local indexes, supported by G...
Quite opposite move of SOFIX (1 210.32, 0.00%) members fixed the main index unchanged on Friday. The jump of Sirma Group Holding (SIRM, EUR 0.915, +3.39%), First Investment Bank (FIB, EUR 3.16, +2.27%) and Sopharma (SFA, EUR 1.715, +2.08%) fully offset the drop of Eurohold (EUBG, EUR 1.03, -6.36%) and Wiser (WISR, EUR, 2.10, -1.87%). The trading session was highlighted by the transfer of 100.8m shares of Gradus (GR6, EUR 0.55, +27.91%) representing 40.9% of the company. BGBX40 (208.17, +0.46%) c...
Trading activity weakened on Tuesday, with only a few index constituents registering volumes above the three-month average. SOFIX (1 268.58, -0.27%) edged lower, largely due to the decline in heavyweight Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 57.80, -1.70%), which weighed on the benchmark. On the broader market, Speedy (SPDY, EUR 88.00, -3.30%) and Telelink Business Services (TBS, EUR 5.45, -6.84%) led the declines, pushing BGBX40 (215.58, -0.55%) lower for the session. Overall, the subdued trading activity me...
The Bulgarian equity market experienced heightened volatility during the first trading session of the shortened week surrounding Liberation Day of Bulgaria. Investor sentiment was mixed as market participants reacted to escalating geopolitical tensions related to Iran and the broader implications of the conflict. Aggressive selling pressure emerged in names such as Wiser Technology (WISR, EUR 2.40, -4.00%), Eurohold Bulgaria (EUBG, EUR 1.06, -3.64%), and Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 57.80, -2.36%). A...
The Bulgarian equity market extended its decline, posting another negative session amid continued selling pressure in the technology and financial sectors. SOFIX (1 319.53) fell by 0.83%, leaving the benchmark 8.7% below its recent 18-year high recorded earlier this year. Within the index, Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 60.20, -3.22%) and Doverie United Holding (DUH, EUR 6.62, -2.65%) led the laggards. On a broader market basis, weakness was further reinforced by sharp declines in Petrol (PET, EUR 0.32...
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 faced a broader-based session at the start of December, resulting in mixed moves across the major indexes. BGBX40 (195.15, +0.21%) led the gainers as Doverie (DUH, BGN 9.52, +3.03%) and Eleven Capital (11C, BGN 16.50, +2.48%) supported the advance, while Neochim (NEOH, BGN 23.00, +15.00%) surged the most, boosted by an unusually high-volume trade executed at the session’s peak price. 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 Bulgarian equities extended their benchmark-led advance for a second consecutive session this week, sending SOFIX (1 086.47, +0.57%) to within a tick of its 18-year high. For the broader indexes — BGBX40 (194.37, +0.33%) and BGTR30 (945.97, +0.27%) — the upward momentum was more muted, as a notable share of constituents remained untraded or little changed. Bulgarian Stock Exchange (BSE, BGN 11.30, +4.63%) and First Investment Bank (FIB, BGN 5.08, +2.63%) regained buying interest and anchored...
Trading activity remained subdued on the Bulgarian equity market on Thursday, with all major indexes slipping modestly below their previous levels. SOFIX (1 072.55, -0.21%) absorbed losses in eight of its fifteen constituents, led by Central Cooperative Bank (CCB, BGN 1.66, -2.35%). Support from Eleven Capital (11C, BGN 16.00, +3.23%) and Stara Planina Hold (SPH, BGN 9.85, +2.60%) helped soften the downside pressure on the broader gauges, yet both BGBX40 (193.26, -0.06%) and BGTR30 (946.00, -0.0...
Huge dividend distribution from Bulgarian Stock Exchange (BSE, BGN 10.60, +10.42%) pushed SOFIX (1 073.93, +0.74%) up on Friday. IT companies Sirma Group Holding (SGH, BGN 1.44, +2.13%) and Wiser (WISR, BGN 5.40, +1.89%) offset the drop of Shelly (SLYG, BGN 54.80, -1.08%) with bigger than regular daily turnover. The wider BGBX40 (193.74, +0.46%) also gained altitude on the back of Monbat (MONB, BGN 1.95, +2.63%) and Sofia Commerce Pawn Brokerage (SCOM, BGN 8.40, +3.07%).
The Bulgarian equity market shook off early weakness on Friday to close the week and the month on a positive note. Heavyweight Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 55.20, -3.83%) pressured the market in early trade, but upbeat financial results lifted sentiment in Sopharma (SFA, BGN 2.65, +5.16%) and Doverie United Holding (DUH, BGN 9.30, +2.42%), helping major indexes reverse course. SOFIX (1 081.60, +0.45%) rose for a second straight session, marking another fresh 18-year high. The real estate sector also ...
A block trade and positive sentiment in the end of the trading session lifted Bulgarian Real Estate Fund (BREF, BGN 5.20, +1.96%) while speculative trades fixed Bulgarian Stock Exchange (BSE, BGN 9.35, +0.54%) and Eurohold (EUBG, BGN 1.85, +0.54%) positive. SOFIX (1 068.73) remained unchanged due to the south move of tech companies Shelly (SLYG, EUR 57.00, -0.70%) and Sirma Group Holding (SGH, BGN 1.36, -1.45%). Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.725, -2.68%) also plunged on Tuesday on the back of speculat...
Negative sentiment weighed on all local indexes on Wednesday. BGREIT (230.35, -0.54%) slipped the most as the drop of Bulgarian Real Estate Fund (BREF, BGN 5.20, -2.80%) erased the positive move of Advance Terrafund (ATER, BGN 2.97, +0.34%). SOFIX (1 060.63, -0.10%) barely survived the selling pressure among most of the index members. The support for the main index came from Shelly (SLYG, EUR 54.80, +1.86%), Telematic Interactive (TIB, BGN 22.00, +0.92%) and Central Cooperative Bank (CCB, BGN 1....
The Bulgarian equity market advanced on Tuesday, led by heavyweight Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 53.80, +2.28%) and Holding Varna (HVAR, BGN 47.40, +1.72%). Broader support came from light-volume gains in EMKA (EMKA, BGN 1.99, +2.58%), Speedy (SPDY, BGN 198.00, +3.13%), and Stara Planina Hold (SPH, BGN 9.70, +2.11%), lifting BGBX40 (193.90, +0.69%) and BGTR30 (958.39, +0.35%). Turnover surged in the session, boosted by a significant block trade in Bulgarian Stock Exchange (BSE, BGN 9.35, -0.53%). Sec...
Profit-taking dominated the Bulgarian equity market on Wednesday, sending all major indexes lower in a range from 0.27% to 0.48%. Losses were broad-based with notable declines in Sirma Group (SGH, BGN 1.36, -4.23%), Bulgarian Stock Exchange (BSE, BGN 8.85, -2.21%), Bulgarian Real Estate Fund (BREF, BGN 5.10, -0.97%), and Trace Group (T57, BGN 6.10, -6.15%) weighing on sentiment. Trading activity picked up sharply with daily turnover climbing well above recent averages. Sopharma (SFA, BGN 2.46, +...
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...
Green color and huge weekly turnover set SOFIX at 1025.22 (+1.8%) – level we haven’t seen since September 2008. Weekly turnover tripled and reached BGN 44m., compared to the average one YTD of BGN 15.6m. Main distributors for the increased volume were Doverie Unted Holding’s buy-back and Sopharma’s sales of its treasury shares. The week was highlighted also by the first IPO this year of Green Innovation which raised almost BGN 8m. on Tuesday.
The Bulgarian benchmark index SOFIX climbed 1.12% to 1025.22, reaching a record 16-year high on the final trading day of the week. The rise was driven by strong performances from Bulgarian Real Estate Fund (BREF, BGN 4.94, +2.23%) and Sopharma (SFA, BGN 7.00, +6.06%). Meanwhile Neochim (NEOH, BGN 22.00, -2.65%) and Albena (ALB, BGN 26.20, -2.96%) traded lightly and curbed the broader market’s momentum. As a result, BGBX40 and BGTR30 posted modest gains of 1.17% (188.81) and 0.76% (942.08), respe...
