The clearest move on the July 15, 2026 session on the Tunis Stock Exchange came from construction-linked names, with the Building and Construction Materials Index rising 4.04% to 916.19 points, the strongest sector gain of the day. That rally outpaced an already robust TUNINDEX index gain of 2.09% to 20,764.08 points and a 2.20% rise in TUNINDEX20 to 9,196.99 points, pointing to a sharp rotation into cyclical pockets of the Tunisia stock market.
That move came against a mixed macro backdrop. Brent crude fell 1.0% on the day to $83.88 a barrel, but it remained up 10.3% over the week, a crucial detail for Tunisia as a net energy importer. At the same time, the U.S. dollar weakened 0.93% against the dinar to 2.9345 TND, based on the market data provided, mechanically easing part of the energy import bill priced in dollars. The euro, however, rose 2.26% to 3.3573 TND, a less supportive development for importers with European exposure.

Tunis stock exchange today: broad gains, with financials reinforcing the move
