Turkey Wake-up call: Macro, Political and Equity News, 12th January

BIST lost 0.29% yesterday as the profit taking in banks weighed on the broader market while weakness in lira along with EM peers did not help the sentiment for stocks either. After a small downtick start, BIST100 quickly turned north and climbed to 1,557 levels around mid-day. Sellers took control after 4:30PM, pushing the index to red and the rebound during the last 40 minutes could not carry it back to positive ground. Banks lost 2.16% on average with particular pressure on heavyweights GARAN and AKBNK. FROTO, TOASO, HEKTS, YATAS, KOZAA, AEFES, CCOLA, TKFEN, and ULKER were among the fewer gainers for the day while OTKAR, TUPRS, ENJSA, GUBRF, PGSUS, and OYAKC topped the non-bank decliners. Today, our local macro agenda is mostly muted and we will be eyeing global markets for a sense of direction. We predict a cautious positive open for the BIST given some recovery in lira (USDTRY at 7.4540 vs 7.4995 at yesterday's closing bell). U.S. futures are up a few points in early trades while Asian markets are trading mixed.
