The monetary evidence may have arrived on August 24th in the form of a monster rate hike from 17% to 25%. In response to the surprise move, the Turkish lira gained over 5% on the U.S. dollar (USD\/TRY dropped almost 6%). While lira sellers reversed half those gains the next day, I still think the CBRT sent a resounding message. This message reverses a disastrous monetary policy that help fan the flames of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tcmb.gov.tr\/wps\/wcm\/connect\/EN\/TCMB+EN\/Main+Menu\/Statistics\/Inflation+Data\">an inflation that has spread to 48% as of July<\/a>.

The strong course of domestic demand, cost pressures stemming from wages and exchange rates, stickiness of services inflation and tax regulations have been the main drivers. In addition to these factors, also driven by the rise in oil prices, higher-than-anticipated deterioration in inflation expectations and in pricing behavior implies a year-end inflation close to the upper bound of the forecast range provided in the Inflation Report (Report)&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The CBRT seems well aware that inflation is out of control. The central bank also has a LOT of work to do given its 5% inflation target! Thus, it is quite possible the repo rate will go higher still. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Trade<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I was short EUR\/TRY going into this decision on monetary policy. The currency pair was drifting downward mainly thanks to weakness in the euro. EUR\/TRY fell over 6% on Thursday before rebounding 2.8% on Friday. While I was sitting on a small (net) loss on my position, the breakdown below the 50-day moving average (DMA) (red line) made me comfortable enough to double down on my position by fading the rebound. If EUR\/TRY moves significantly above the 50DMA again, I will be forced to rethink my position. Such a resumption in lira weakness would signal an alarming lack of faith in Turkey&#8217;s economic prospects. In the meantime, I will enjoy the much higher yields on my short EUR\/TRY.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230825_EURTRY-euro-vs-turkish-lira.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230825_EURTRY-euro-vs-turkish-lira.png\" alt=\"EUR\/TRY - euro vs the Turkish lira\" class=\"wp-image-65677\" style=\"width:840px;height:481px\" width=\"840\" height=\"481\" title=\"EUR\/TRY - euro vs the Turkish lira\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230825_EURTRY-euro-vs-turkish-lira.png 1479w, https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230825_EURTRY-euro-vs-turkish-lira-768x440.png 768w, https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230825_EURTRY-euro-vs-turkish-lira-1320x756.png 1320w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 840px) 100vw, 840px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong><em>EUR\/TRY &#8211; euro vs the Turkish lira<\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Interestingly, iShares MSCI Turkey ETF (TUR) has rallied the past two months and has well-outperformed U.S. markets in August.
