Tunisia’s stock market closed Wednesday, March 25, 2026 slightly lower, with the TUNINDEX at 15,512.32 points (-0.17%) and the TUNINDEX20 at 6,868.37 (-0.37%). The decline looked modest, but the session was split in two: the market posted 34 gainers, against 16 losers and 25 unchanged stocks, showing that a small number of heavyweight names dragged the indices more than the broader list suggested.
That divergence matters for reading the Tunis stock exchange today. When market breadth is positive but the benchmark still falls, the usual explanation is concentrated selling in large caps, especially banks, whose weight on the BVMT remains decisive. Fresh regulatory filings released through the CMF on Attijari Bank, alongside a press release from BT, pushed the banking sector back to the center of trading.
Market context: indices slip even as breadth stays constructive
The 0.37% drop in the TUNINDEX20 was steeper than the move in the broader TUNINDEX, confirming that the most liquid names underperformed. Among the day’s biggest decliners, BT fell 5.9% to 7.20 TND, UBCI lost 3.6% to 37.60 TND, while UNIMED and New Body Line each dropped 2.5%, to 8.60 TND and 3.90 TND respectively. SOTUVER, whose trading resumed on March 24 according to market notices, slipped another 1.9% to 16.52 TND.
