Enormous opposite moves of index members lowered SOFIX to 1 213.31 (-0.21%) on Monday. The selling pressure weighed on Central Cooperative Bank (CCB, EUR 1.71, -2.29%) and Shelly (SLYG, EUR 49.80, -1.58%) while Wiser (WISR, EUR 2.10, -4.55%), Chimimport (CHIM, EUR 0.438, -2.23%) and Sopharma (SFA, EUR 1.75, -1.41%) lost altitude without significant daily volume. Sirma Group Holding (SGH, EUR 0.96, +6.67%), Doverie United Holding (DUH, EUR 5.90, +1.72%) and First Investment Bank (FIB, EUR 3.14, +...
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.

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...

It appeared that the fresh 18-year highs reached in recent sessions attracted increased profit-taking, as the Bulgarian equity market came under selling pressure on Friday, echoing the cautious sentiment from global markets. SOFIX (1 374.91, -0.76%) closed lower, weighed down by declines in Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 68.00, -2.30%) and First Investment Bank (FIB, EUR 3.68, -2.13%), despite the absence of any negative surprises in the latest financial disclosures. On a broader base, Eleven Capital (...
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 equity market bent under selling pressure on Thursday, as weakness in several standalone names pulled the major indexes into negative territory. Wiser Technologies (WISR, BGN 4.52, -4.24%) and Advance Terrafund (ATER, BGN 2.62, -2.60%) led the declines, weighing broadly on sentiment. 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 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...
SOFIX (1 067.06, -0.18%) closed slightly negative on the last trading day of the month as opposite move of index members offset each other. First Investment Bank (FIB, BGN 5.06, -3.44%), Smart Organic (SO, BGN 27.60, -1.43%), Sirma Group Holding (SGH, BGN 1.70, -1.16%) and Advance Terrafund (ATER, BGN 2.82, -1.05%) disappointed investors with the release of Q3 financial reports and selling pressure did not find adequate demand. Wiser (WISR, BGN 5.05, +1.81%) also reported loss in Q3 but negative...
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 ...

SOFIX 1040.03 lost 0.28% on Thursday thus finishing the month in the red zone with moderate daily turnover. Heavy Shelly (SLYG, EUR 49.00, -1.61%) and Eurohold (EUBG, BGN 1.84, -0.54%) suffered from selling pressure and weighed on the main index. Daily loser Telematic Interactive (TIB, BGN 22.40, -2.61%) registered insignificant daily volume and speculative trades fixed the gambling operator in negative territory. Support for the main index came from Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.725, +1.40%) and Bulg...
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...
The Bulgarian stock market edged slightly lower last week, as investor activity did not improve and there was no clear point for the market during ongoing summer season. The benchmark SOFIX retreated 0.2% to settle at 1023.43, as the broad ones- BGBX40 (188.48, -0.2%) and BGTR30 (938.83, -0.3%) performed the same. The weekly volume (-68.5%) showed weak performance, while the turnover (+50.7%) was pushed up by intense trade with bonds and some particular positions. The top gainers within our list...
A buying interest in Sopharma (SFA, BGN 7.20, +2.86%) and Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.715, +2.14%) balanced the negative moves of Shelly (SLYG, EUR 47.90, -2.64%) and Bulgarian Stock Exchange (BSE, BGN 9.10, -2.15%). As a result, SOFIX (1025.22) finished the session unchanged on the first trading day of the week. Monbat (MONB, BGN 2.26, -2.59%), M+S Hydraulic (MSH, BGN 9.60, -3.03%), and Speedy (SPDY, BGN 187.00, -7.43%) weighed on the broad indexes and BGBX40 (188.01, -0.42%) and BGTR30 (937.32, -0...
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...
