Four important events happened on BSE this week. First, SOFIX fell below 1,000 points and then rebounded. Second, BSE extended the suspension on trade in Aroma shares.

The floating of the new Monbat and EMKA shares was delayed by a day. And last but not least - BSE is introducing two new instruments for COBOS clients (margin trade option and short selling).

The week was poor in corporate news, as brokers interviewed by Profit.bg predicted on Monday and trade was slow.

BSE's turnover hardly managed to pass 3 mln leva today. 1.5 mln of it was from transactions in bonds. The value of block and other agreed transactions came to 1.08 mln leva.

39 out of the 94 active positions today closed on positive territory.

Three indexes closed higher after fluctuations in narrow range. SOFIX added 0.46% to 1008.55 points today but is still 0.4% down on a weekly basis.

BG40 closed 0.15% higher at 254.88 points today and 2.08% higher for the week. BGTR30 climbed 0.10% today and 0.12% for the week and closed at 662.45 points.

The only declining index today is BGREIT, which dropped 0.59% to 88.74 points. The index slips 0.84% on a weekly basis.

11 stocks in BG40 closed higher this week. Zaharni Zavodi was prompted by the good H1 report. The stock surged 14.03% to 9.02 leva.

The se4cond best performer within the broad index is Orgachim, which appreciated by 7.83%, from 180 to 181.3 leva this week.

Albena climbed 6.51% to an average of 66.73 leva/share.

The week's decliners include: M+S Hydraulic (-6.64% to 6.33 leva), Balgraska Roza Sevtopolis (-6.4% t 1.61 leva), Industrial Capital Holding (-6.31%, 7.88 leva) etc.

There were no transactions with Chugunoleene this week as well. The stock remains at 18 leva/hare. This makes the company a candidate for exclusion from the index of the most liquid companies at its upcoming revision .

Aroma shares were not traded this week as well, but tis is because the stock of the cosmetics company was suspended because of legal disputes with former partner Astera Holding.
