Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.

Konya Şeker, a subsidiary of TORKU, has halted production at its Kangal thermal power plant and placed nearly 1,000 workers on leave, according to the company. The stoppage at the coal-fired facility removes a significant chunk of generation capacity from Turkey's power supply and puts pressure on the regional economy tied to the plant. Investors will watch for the company's explanation of the outage and a restart timeline, plus any signal that the leave is temporary rather than a precursor to layoffs.
