A 6.0% one-day jump was enough to put SOTETEL at the center of the Tunis stock exchange today, even as the broader market barely moved. The stock closed at 7.30 TND on Monday, April 13, 2026, while the TUNINDEX index edged up just 0.07% to 15,606.62 points, highlighting highly selective demand for technology and digital-services names rather than a broad-based rally.
That contrast matters even more because the macro backdrop deteriorated sharply within hours. Brent crude surged to $100.82 a barrel, up 5.9% on the day and 6.4% on the week, as tensions around Iran and risks to the Strait of Hormuz rattled global markets. For Tunisia, a net energy importer, that oil spike combines with a weaker dinar against the dollar — USD/TND at 2.8955, up 0.54% — to raise the import bill, pressure public finances and squeeze companies with heavy exposure to imported inputs.
