•The BIST100 rose from the grave yesterday, rebounding from the 7300 level, to close the day 0.19% higher at 7529, but on a low turnover of TRY 95.4bn, with the Mining and Conglomerates spearheading the gains, while the Banks fell by nearly half-a-percent, however the Energy and REITs were the most sold sectors. The US markets also enjoyed a joyous trading session, rallying after the FOMC kept interest rates unchanged for a second consecutive time. The 10year US Bond rates also fell noticeably to 4.755, after peaking at 4.94. Accordingly, the markets perceived Powell's post-policy press conference as dovish.
• SASA-TCELL and TUPRS led the gains among the BIST30 stocks, whereas ODAS faced profit-takings, and fell by 2.62%, and was followed by TAVHL and PETKM shares.
• As of yesterday's session closing levels, the TRY is trading flat against the USD at 28.33, but weaker against the Euro at 30.03, while the DXY has retreated slightly to 106.38. The 2yr and 10yr Bond yields both closed higher, by 221% and 17bps, to 37.37% and 28.28%, respectively.
• On the commodity side, Brent has risen to above the $85 level to $85.29, and ounce and gram GOLD are trading higher after yesterday's dovish Powell speech at $1987and TRY 1810, respectively.
• As widely expected, the FOMC kept rates unchanged in a range of 5.25% to 5.5%, as was widely expected. Fed Chair Jerome Powell at the post-decision press conference stated that they would not rule out a hike in December, saying that the idea that it would be difficult to raise rates after pausing for two meetings was wrong.
• The CBRT continued further tightening measures yesterday for FX-denominated savings accounts. According, the Required Resave Requirement Rate for maturities up to 6 months was raised to 30% from 25%, and maturities up to 1 year and above were raised to 10% from 5%. A 4% TRY requirement on FX accounts was also implemented.
AGENDA
• On the local front today, the Weekly Non-Resident STOCK/BOND Holdings will be released, as well as the CBRT Inflation Assessment Report, while the PMIs from Germany, and US Weekly Jobless Claims, and Factory Orders will be tracked on the US front, and the BOE will release its policy rate today, but is expected to maintain the rates unchanged.
