" The BIST100 closed yesterday on a loss of 0.67% at 5589, and turnover of TRY 91.7bn, after peaking at its new historic summit at 5730, bettering its old record by around 27pts, before seeing profit-takings in the afternoon.
" The Banks continued to diverge negatively, and quite profoundly too, from its peers, falling by another 2.79%, whereas the Aviation stocks continued to soar over their peers, encouraged by the past weekend's high foreign turnout for the Champions League final, which is expected to trigger further international events in Turkey, also worth noting that tourism hot spot Antalya, realized its highest flight count in 6 months on June 10th, by servicing 954 international and 116 domestic flights for a grand total of 1070 flights, thus accommodating 182, 113 passengers in all.
" Accordingly, THYAO, PGSUS, and AKSEN led the gains among the BIST30 stocks, whereas SASA, YKBNK and ALARK were the most sold. The news on sale of Sasa stakes by Erdemoglu Holding came after the market closing. The TRY53/share price is 15% lower than yesterdays' closing. So more pressure on Sasa likely today.
" Today, we expect a positive opening at the BIST parallel to the positive mood in the global markets, on expectations that the FOMC will leave rates unchanged at tomorrow's meeting.
" As of yesterday's close, the TRY is trading weaker once again against both the USD and the Euro at 23.69 and 25.57, respectively, whereas the DXY has retreated slightly to 103.40, as of print.
" The 2yr and 10yr rates rose by 118bps and 160 bps to 16.87% and 16.70%, respectively.
" On the commodity front, Brent is trading slightly higher compared to yesterday's closing price at USD 72.16, weighed down yesterday due to the slight probability of a rate increase by the FOMC on Wednesday, decreasing demand due to the economic slowdown. Goldman Sachs also once again lowered its year-end forecast to USD 86 from USD 95. Both ounce and gram GOLD are flat at USD 1957 and 1487, respectively.
