According to the TÜİK data released yesterday, the inflation rate came in at 85.51% in the third inflation report of the year, bro. The market was already expecting around 84%, so they nailed it. So what caused this number? Basically, it’s the explosion in food and transportation prices. Food inflation hit 105%, and with the rise in imported oil prices added in, transportation inflation pushed past 110%. In other words, your household budget got sacrificed.
I don’t think these figures are something to take lightly, man. The Central Bank’s interest‑rate decision next week is critical, because inflation staying above 80% will force the policy rate above 80% as well. In short, the CBRT will have to take radical steps to get inflation under control. If they don’t raise rates, the exchange rate and inflation could spiral even further. The situation is serious—no more sitting on the sidelines; this time the gears are really grinding.
