Turkish lira continues to decline against the US dollar, the lira recorded its lowest level this year, amid a strong decline in emerging market currencies and financial assets in general against the US dollar. Yesterday, most financial assets recorded strong declines as the stock markets, precious metals, cryptocurrencies, major currencies, and of course emerging market currencies declined. In light of the US Federal Reserve maintaining the policy of tightening against the policy of easing followed by the Turkish Central Bank, where the interest rate was fixed after cutting it by about 5 percent during the past year. The Turkish lira recorded a decline of about 40 percent during the past year, before regaining its balance at the end of the year, after which it began to decline at a weak pace.
On the technical level, the Turkish lira fell strongly against the dollar during yesterday’s trading, as the Turkish currency continued to decline to break the limited trading range in which the currency settled for a long time.
