As a result of the fluctuations the closing rate at the Central bank for dollar was 1 million 458 thousand TL.
One of the factors affecting the value of dollar was that positive expectations in the markets regarding Turkey’s sending troops to Iraq ended. Moreover the markets also affected by the international markets because of the statements of John Show, U.S. Treasury Secretary, who said that the interest rates in U.S. might increase as a result of a growing economy and increasing company profits.
