Caner Yılmaz – BIST 100 Technical & Quantitative Analysis Director: “As the index nears a key resistance, technical indicators remain bullish. The robust performance of mining and tech stocks offers attractive diversification opportunities. A break above 13,924 could trigger a new rally; otherwise, a short‑term consolidation is likely.”
