Title: Turkish Lira
Post by: Rods2 on 28 January 2014, 15:54:05
Has recently been dropping against the US Dollar faster than a whole knickers on a busy Saturday night. Perhaps cem can give us a good conspiracy theory on the reasons why?

main reason is the private sector having high amount of US dolar debit.. and now pay back time.

second factor FED tightening the dolar output..

third : political reasons..

fourth : inefficient and incompetent central bank because their left hand is tied to increase interest rates because of polticians..

fifth : citizens starting to buy US dolar

And it's not that long back that Turkey knocked 3 noughts off their Lira ie TL1000 000 became TL1000

I used to have a TL20 note (yellowIIRC) from when we called in Istanbul in the early 80s on our way back home on HMS Fearless

The Fed tighten by beginning to taper their $85 billion a month stimulus is affecting many other developing countries, including India, Indonesia and Brazil and maybe Argentina (Their mad woman president has screwed their economy anyway, think Hollande on botox. ;D).

The US FED have been very sympathetic, your problem, deal with it!  :o :o :o :o

In Asia wealth has traditionally be stored in gold, not potentially worthless paper. In India their citizens have been buying so much, their government has attempted to restricted its import, which they know is working as they are catching more smugglers.  ::) ::) ::)

All central banks have become politicized and controlled by the politicians, Cameron was only the other day that the BOE is fully independent.  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
