Borsa Istanbul Opens Lower After Absolute Rejection Decision

Borsa Istanbul began the day on a selling‑heavy trajectory following the absolute rejection decision. At the opening, the BIST 100 index fell more than 0.5% from the previous close. Investors are closely monitoring the decision’s legal and financial implications, while the index slipped below the 9,800‑point level in early trading. Selling pressure was most pronounced in banking and holding stocks, and trading volume remained below normal levels. Analysts suggest that the decision’s short‑term impact may be limited, but volatility could increase if uncertainty persists. In particular, foreign investors’ reactions and movements in currency rates are under close scrutiny. During the first half of the session, the index continued to trade in a selling trend, hovering between 9,750 and 9,800 points. Market participants are awaiting data releases and potential corporate announcements scheduled for the afternoon. This is not investment advice.
