Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
Turkey’s trade sales volume contracted 5.6% year over year and 0.7% month over month in September, according to Turkish Statistical Institute (TÜİK) data, with declines in wholesale trade and motor vehicle trade. Retail sales volume rose 7.7% annually, diverging from the broader trade weakness. The split matters because it signals softer business-to-business and vehicle-related demand even as household retail spending holds up. Watch upcoming TÜİK monthly trade and retail releases for whether the wholesale and auto drag persists or spreads into retail.
