Index holds above Thursday's close
The BIST 100 opened at 11,805.48 points, a 0.05% decline from the previous close, before moving into positive territory. Earlier in the session, the index reached an intraday low of 11,748.37 and a high of 11,885.12, according to Aposto.
Domestic buying offsets global caution
Market breadth was positive in the latest available snapshot, with 70 BIST 100 constituents rising and 24 declining. The industrial index was up 0.63%, while the banking index gained 0.10%, according to the same market report. The sector mix points to broader participation beyond financial stocks, although intraday readings can change before the official close.
A separate midday report from Paranin Yonu said the index had gained 0.44% to 11,863.39 points at 13:00 local time, with trading volume of 55.4 billion Turkish liras. The report said domestic buying was broadly distributed, while investors were also focused on the US producer-price release due later in the day. It also cited September current-account data showing a surplus of 2.72 billion US dollars.
Resistance remains near 12,000
Analysts cited in the midday report identified 12,000 and 12,100 points as resistance levels, with support at 11,700 and 11,600. These levels provide a framework for monitoring the remainder of the session rather than a forecast of the eventual close. The BIST 100 had already advanced 1.24% on Thursday, making the ability to hold above 11,800 relevant for short-term market direction.
