Weakness in the Turkish lira drove USD\/TRY to new all-time highs. On Thursday, the Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey (CBRT) tried yet again to stop the bleeding. <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/tcmb.gov.tr\/wps\/wcm\/connect\/en\/tcmb+en\/main+menu\/announcements\/press+releases\/2020\/ano2020-58\" target=\"_blank\">The Turkish Central Bank hiked its policy rate<\/a> an entire 200 basis points from 8.25% to 10.25%. The CBRT delivered a good\/bad news message to explain its move. Apparently, the Turkish economy is recovering rapidly and strongly from the pandemic. However, inflation pressures are greater  than expected or desired.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>&#8220;Pandemic-related supply-side inflationary factors were expected to gradually phase out during the normalization process and demand-driven disinflationary effects were expected to become more prevalent. Yet, as a result of fast economic recovery with strong credit momentum, and financial market developments, inflation followed a higher-than-envisaged path. The Committee assessed that the tightening steps taken since August should be reinforced in order to contain inflation expectations and risks to the inflation outlook. Accordingly, the Committee decided to increase the policy rate by 200 basis points to restore the disinflation process and support price stability.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The currency markets initially bought the lira on the news.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"774\" src=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/200925_USDTRY-US-dollar-vs-turkish-lira.png\" alt=\"The upward momentum in the U.S. dollar versus Turkish lira (USD\/TRY) came to a brief end in the wake of central bank action.\" class=\"wp-image-54624\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/200925_USDTRY-US-dollar-vs-turkish-lira.png 1200w, https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/200925_USDTRY-US-dollar-vs-turkish-lira-768x495.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption>The upward momentum in the U.S. dollar versus Turkish lira (USD\/TRY) came to a brief end in the wake of central bank action.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<br><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1196033822186410\" data-ad-slot=\"3478942445\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><br>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A Long Trail of Tears<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Still, the two consecutive rebounds from intraday lows suggest the CBRT needs to do more.

Can the CBRT raise rates further even as Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan continues to favor lower rates? Moreover, is the Turkish economy on a sustained path of recovery that can sustain yet tighter monetary policy. The CBRT must strike an extremely fine balance in setting policy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Trade<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I had a very small position short USD\/TRY going into the surprise CBRT move that hiked the policy rate. For a brief moment I thought my speculation was validated. Yet, if USD\/TRY prints new highs, the trade takes on the risk of waiting for yet more CBRT action to bolster market confidence. The trade is a success if USD\/TRY just pulls back to its upward trending 50-day moving average (DMA).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The apparent bottoming in the U.S. dollar index (DXY) presents another risk factor. The index does not include the Turkish lira, but a strengthening in this index should cascade out to riskier currency pairs like USD\/TRY.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/200925_DXY-US-dollar-index.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"774\" src=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/200925_DXY-US-dollar-index.png\" alt=\"The U.S. dollar index (DXY) broke out from 2 months of consolidation and ended the 50DMA downtrend.\" class=\"wp-image-54628\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/200925_DXY-US-dollar-index.png 1200w, https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/200925_DXY-US-dollar-index-768x495.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>The U.S. dollar index (DXY) broke out from 2 months of consolidation and ended the 50DMA downtrend. <strong>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/SfFzrrrr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">TradingView.com<\/a><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Be careful out there!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Full disclosure: short USD\/TRY<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Turkish lira suffered another run of sustained weakness this month.
