  1. Can someone explain what happened a few days ago in order to have this steep decline from almost 17 to 11 and why is it increasing again now?

  2. Since they introduced infinite interest rates, when the government needs to return the money current inflation will not even be comparable to what is coming.

  3. Except this time they do not have enough foreign currency reserves to dump onto the market and soften the blow.

  4. Is it possible that the Turkish economy, and possibly the country itself alongside it, will at least partially collapse?

  5. Aright Balkan bros, you coming this weekend to buy some cheap stuff?

    Bring us some cookies… I can offer tea/coffee.

  6. When I was in Turkey in 2019 I could get 6 lira for 1 euro. It’s crazy to see the difference in such a short amount of time

  7. It’s like in a hot air balloon. When you sink, you drop off weight. Get rid of Erdogan and the economy will get fixed!

  8. …..Is there some system for shorting currencies? There must be. Betting against the Lira seems like a minimal risk investment while erdonomics are in effect…

  9. I have a question for turks. Is erdogan popular in turkey? Does he have supporters? If yes how? Manipulating the media?

  10. İnflation saw 120% in the last quarter (Steve Hanke), because everything imported into the country is bought in dollars, and we do not produce anything, we have no purchasing power anymore and those who suffer from it are those who have never voted for Erdogan.

  11. They basically raised the interest one-sided, only for savings. We in Hungary did almost the same a few days later, by freezing the interest on loans. But don’t tell anyone.
