Sector rotation set the tone on the Tunis stock exchange today: BH jumped 5.2% to 15.25 TND, the session’s best performance, as the Financial Services Index rose 1.56% and the TUNINDEX index added 0.37% to 20,070.56 points. The move stood out because it came in a divided market, with 26 stocks up, 29 down and 20 unchanged, showing that buying was concentrated rather than broad-based.
The main takeaway is straightforward: in 2026, financials remain the Tunisia market’s dominant leadership group. The Financial Companies Index is now up 57.34% year to date, ahead of a TUNINDEX already higher by 49.22%, while the Banks Index has gained 56.89% and the Insurance Index 57.04%. Against that backdrop, BH’s surge was not just a technical bounce; it fitted into a broader reallocation toward liquid financial names that can absorb portfolio flows more easily than smaller industrial or consumer counters.
