- The BIST 100 stood at 10,950.52 points at 13:09 Berlin time, down 1.92 percent from the previous close.
- Borsa Istanbul had resumed trading after the Republic Day closure on October 29.
- The session was still underway, so the level was an intraday reading rather than a closing value.
The BIST 100 came under renewed pressure on Friday, October 30, after Borsa Istanbul resumed regular trading following the Republic Day closure. The index stood at 10,950.52 points at 13:09 Berlin time, equivalent to 15:09 in Istanbul, according to market data. That represented a decline of 214.92 points, or 1.92 percent, from the previous close of 11,165.44 points.
Intraday decline follows holiday break
The session followed a shortened trading day on October 28 and a market holiday on October 29. The Borsa Istanbul index page identifies the BIST 100 as the XU100, a market-cap-weighted price index denominated in Turkish lira. Its published previous close for the latest completed session was 11,165.44 points.
Trading remains in progress
The intraday reading does not represent the final result for October 30. The index had opened at 11,099.89 points and traded between 10,922.66 and 11,106.13 points by the reported timestamp. The decline therefore reflected the market's position during the session rather than a confirmed closing move.
For investors, the immediate reference point is whether the index can recover above the previous close before the closing auction. A sustained move below that level would extend the recent weakness, while the day's low shows that selling pressure had already pushed the benchmark below 10,950 points during trading. This is an observation of market conditions, not an investment recommendation.
