In global markets, expectations of a “soft landing” for the country’s economy gained strength again after the non-farm employment data announced last week in the USA fell below expectations, while the verbal guidance of the US Federal Reserve (Fed) officials throughout the week became the focus of investors.
Meanwhile, after the markets closed on Friday, the American credit rating agency Standard and Poor’s (S&P) upgraded Turkiye’s credit rating from “B” to “B+” and stated, “We anticipate increased portfolio inflows over the next two years, along with a narrowing current account deficit, reduced inflation, and decreased dollarization.”
Analysts stated that the real effective exchange rate in the country, the service sector in Europe abroad and the composite Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) data will be followed today, and noted that technically, 12,000 and 12,200 points in the index contract are in a resistance position, and 11,800 and 11,700 levels are in a support position.
