It was a mixed session on the Bulgarian Stock Exchange on Tuesday, with the main indexes ending flat amid opposing moves across key equities.

The Bulgarian equity market lost momentum on Monday, sending the main indexes in mixed directions.

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.

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...

The announcement of a US-EU trade deal failed to lift sentiment on the Bulgarian Stock Exchange, as investors remained largely in wait-and-see mode.

The major equity indexes rebounded on Tuesday and totally erased previous session losses on BSE.

SOFIX (896.88, +0.09%) and BGBX40 (171.79, +0.01%) closed on a note higher on Wednesday, though the daily impact could be stronger without the selling pressure on Central Cooperative Bank (CCB, BGN 1.60, -2.44%) and Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.715, -2.05%), which placed the bank on the top loser list for second day in a row in the large cap space.
