Sharp Decline in Stock Market Triggers Record Margin Calls

The sharp sell-off in the stock market on Thursday, driven by political developments, led investors to face margin calls. The total amount of these calls reached 3.6 billion Turkish Lira, setting a historic record. Margin calls occur when investors trading on margin need to deposit additional collateral to maintain their positions. This record level highlights the severity of the selling pressure in the market. Experts note that this situation could lead to increased volatility in the short term and forced selling by some investors. However, the market is expected to stabilize in the medium term. This is not investment advice.
