Barclays: Pace of depreciation in USD/TRY increased in October
📊 BARC — Piyasa Yorumu
▲ up · 70%Barclays' assessment that the pace of depreciation in the USD/TRY exchange rate increased in October indicates that pressure on the Turkish lira persists. Such analyst notes may strengthen the perception of upward risk in the exchange rate, leading to a cautious stance in local assets. In the short term, volatility in the lira may rise and foreign investor sentiment may weaken. Overall market direction may diverge more negatively for Turkey compared to emerging markets.
📊 USDTRY — Piyasa Yorumu
▲ up · 55%Barclays' assessment that the lira's depreciation accelerated in October could create mild upward pressure on USDTRY. However, the price is already near the 50 level and the 24-hour change is nearly flat; the news is likely largely priced in. RSI at 59.8 is in neutral-to-upward territory, MACD is slightly below its signal and momentum is weak. The price trading just above SMA20 and SMA50 supports a limited upward bias, but there is no strong breakout signal. I foresee a moderately upward but low-confidence picture in the short term.
