The TRY/USD has stabilized, as the Turkish currency is heading to record an annual closure near its lowest levels ever against the US dollar. This happened after losing about 30 percent of its value during the current year, compared to a decline of 44 percent in 2021.
The stimulus policy pursued by the Turkish Central Bank contributed to increasing pressure on the Turkish lira, as the bank cut interest rates over four consecutive meetings before fixing interest rates during last Thursday's meeting. Record Turkish interest rates declined from 14 percent to levels of 9 percent at the present time.
In the meantime, investors followed the statements of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Monday, which were issued after a meeting of the Turkish Cabinet. He said that the government is working to reduce the annual inflation rate to less than 30% by the end of next year. The goal is to reduce the inflation rate to single digits by 2024. Erdogan also said that the government's plan aims to "develop Turkey through investment, employment, production, exports, and the current account surplus." He stressed that the government would continue to work to overcome "losses resulting from high prices." In November, the annual inflation rate in the country was 84.39%.
