This week has proven to be particularly challenging for the Tunis Stock Exchange. The stock market displayed a decidedly bearish trend, shedding 3.6% to reach 8498.5 points, as per the analysis provided by the brokerage firm “Tunisie Valeurs.”

It is worth noting that this regression can be attributed to a selling pressure that has affected, almost indiscriminately, heavyweight entities on the market, particularly in the banking sector and SFBT.

The market experienced a significant acceleration in trading activity, accumulating a total turnover of TND 34 million. Of note is the execution of a block transaction involving Amen Bank shares, amounting to TND 7.2 million.
