Turkey Crashes - Joe Blogs



In this video I discuss the current state of the Economy in Turkey. Over the past few days the Stock Market has started to crash, recording its worst performance since the Global Financial Crisis in 2008, and the Turkish Lira fell by over 12% to an all time low. These events were triggered by the arrest of the Mayor or Istanbul who is due to be elected as the leader of the main opposition party and raises concerns about what is going to happen to the Turkish Economy.
