The price of the TRY/USD varied during early trading this morning, as the dollar pair settled against the lira near its all-time high, which the pair had previously recorded earlier this month. Investors followed a poll published by Reuters, which revealed expectations of a decline in the annual inflation rate during the month of March in the country, reaching 51.3 percent. The poll also indicated that inflation would reach 46.5 levels by the end of the year. Commodity prices recorded strong increases over the past year with the decline in the price of the lira, as inflation recorded record levels during the month of November, reaching its highest level in about 24 years.
The annual inflation rate in Turkey recorded a decline for the fourth consecutive month last February, although it was lower than expected, as it recorded 55.18%. Analysts attributed the rise in inflation in the country to the rise in energy imports, which jumped after the Russian invasion of Ukraine, in addition to rises in the food and non-alcoholic beverage sector. Meanwhile, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan revealed that his government will offer discounts on natural gas prices for commodity users in industries by 20% and electricity by 15%, starting next April.
