BIST 100 closed the session with a robust 171‑point gain, signaling renewed risk appetite among investors.

Drivers Behind the Upswing

■TL‑based pivot: 14,180

■Dollar‑based resistances: 305.3, 306.9, 310.1

■Dollar‑based supports: 300.5, 297.3, 295.7

Sector Performance: Banking vs. Industrials

■The banking index finished negative, while industrial stocks led the rally, injecting positive momentum into the index.

Global Influences: Fitch Ratings and Oil Prices

■Fitch’s rating decision could heighten market volatility; investors should monitor this closely.

■The decline in oil prices supports risk‑on sentiment, reinforcing the upward thrust of BIST 100.

Caner Yılmaz – Director of Technical and Quantitative Analysis, BIST 100: “Should the index breach the 14,400 mark, the uptrend will likely accelerate, sparking a new buying wave. Conversely, a close below 14,100 could trigger short‑term volatility. Fitch’s upcoming rating and the oil price pullback both underscore the need for a cautious stance in position sizing.”
