The stock market started the day with a rise

Borsa Istanbul's BIST 100 index opened the session up 0.39% at 11,758.85 points. Mining stocks led sector gains at 1.43%, while the metal goods and machinery sector was the weakest performer, falling 2.10%. The modest opening advance extends the index's recent upward tone, though the divergence between sector performances points to uneven investor appetite across industries. Market participants will watch whether the benchmark can hold above the 11,750 level through the session and whether mining strength persists amid the machinery sector's weakness.
