Turkish lira Analysis: USD/TRY stabilized during early trading on Monday morning with an upward bias. The pair continued to move in a limited range below last month's high of 32.50 lira per dollar. Recently, the Turkish lira received some support after the Turkish central bank raised interest rates at its meeting last month.

Meanwhile, the investors were focused on the results of the local elections held in Turkey yesterday. In the early hours of Monday morning, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan admitted that his ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) had lost the Turkish municipal elections, with the main opposition Republican People's Party (CHP) making gains. Erdogan described the election result as a turning point, not a defeat, stressing that democracy and the national will are the real winners.

After most of the votes were counted, the CHP was ahead with 37.15% of the vote, narrowly ahead of the AKP, which received 36.12%. The loss represents a major shift in Turkish politics, with the CHP winning victories in key cities, including Istanbul and Ankara, reflecting a change in voter sentiment. The election results highlight a difficult period for Erdogan and his AKP, which has ruled Turkey for more than two decades.

At the same time, Istanbul Mayor Ekrem Imamoglu declared victory in the local elections held on Sunday, marking a significant moment in Turkish politics when he defeated the candidate backed by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Moreover, the CHP retained Ankara and won additional seats in nine other major cities across the country.
