Following the calls to boycott Mastercard and Visa over their support for Israel, Turkey's local payment system, Troy's volume increases by more than 50 percent in October while the number of its cards reach to 19 million

Good, but in my opinion, the graphic and growth looks like it continuing its trend and not accelerating due to current events.

They sent the previous tweet on August 24th. The guys suddenly remembered social media. They make advertisements and gaslight the nation.

I think everything is already baked in w.r.t US-Turkiye (w.r.t Israel - Palestine, Hamas et al.). US and West are more looking at internal sources of finance for Hamas.

BTW I just saw that TR Lira essentially was held to a ceiling till the Election this year (May 14th - May 28th)...and then after it a big valve was released.

In September 2021, the interest rate was 19% and the US dollar exchange rate was 8.82TL. From that date on they started their "unorthodox"(downright stupid) economical policies and reduced the interest rates time after time after time while the inflation was on a never ending spike. Today the interest rate is 40% and $1US = 28.8TL. The inflation rate of 2022 was more than 100%.

What was this experiment for? Generations of people, mostly the youth, are perpetually damaged. They will have lifelong trust issues with our national currency. People will have aversion towards Lira that will continuously contribute to inflation for decades to come.

You doubt the decisions of some people that are lead by a person who is an alumni of Marmara University's Faculty of Economics? :D

The new economy admin is doing well. I expect the rate increase to stop at %45.

During the covid period we have to lower some interest to support the economy likes the Japanese done.

But Erdogan and AKP done too much things to destroyed the trust of market in 2016-2020…..

While the spot rate of the lira has continued to weaken against the dollar since the interest rate rise to 40%, I have noticed that the 2 year forward rate (was 54+ to the $ a few weeks ago) is now 50+ to the $. Would another interest rate hike be necessary or is it being raised to reduce the inflation rate?
