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

Istanbul traffic congestion reached 90% on Tuesday, with heavy jams reported along the D-100 highway on the European side between Beylikdüzü, Avcılar, Yenibosna, Bahçelievler, Merter, Cevizlibağ and Mecidiyeköy, and the 15 July Martyrs Bridge. Vehicles were also moving with difficulty on the TEM highway on the Anatolian side between Ataşehir and Sultanbeyli. The 90% density level signals severe delays across both sides of the city and a strain on daily commuting and freight movement.
