Turkish Lira Collapse

[errolanderson]

Big overnight fallout in Turkish Lira and Russian Ruble pulling Euro sharply lower. This is middle of night, but appears to be investor rush toward U.S. treasuries. Stock markets and commodities may come under heavy selling pressure. Gold and loonie being impacted. USD sharply higher.

Don’t like the smell of this one . . . .

So people with money are heading back to the USA dollar?

Big money is moving?

Canada could of been joined at the hip but no our idiot is a idiot.

Just asking

interesting times ahead.....

Trump also doubling steel and aluminum tariffs on Turkey this morning.

Monday stock market could be interesting as contagion risk 'sinks-in' across European banks over the weekend. We are now in an economic war . . . .

This can’t be good for the red lentil market.

Turkish lira hits record low tonite. Asian markets currently under heavy selling pressure. Turkish leadership attempting to calm markets.

Concern now is whether financial market contagion risks can be minimized. Heightened volatility likely for both equities and commodities this week . . . .

Another backwards country, interesting to see how low their currency will drop while the USA places sanctions against them.

Errol I always read what you have to say, and appreciate you taking the time to contribute, and offer another perspective. One of the only ones still talking about commodity marketing. Now, after that polite disclaimer... I might have missed it, but have you ever had anything positive to say about markets?

How can AGT go private now? all the Turkish $$$ is vanishing overnight

One by one the fiat currency dominoes will fall until the $USD is the only one left and then how much longer will that last? Big question right now is how much longer has the loonie got left until $USD denominated debt here in Canuckistan takes it out?

Volume and connections ...like SF3 says follow the money....see who's running for provincial politics in different areas and their background....

The governments will back Katib through the supercluster**** initiative...

Gold breaks below $1,200 per oz this morning. Global commodity deflation continues to pressure precious metals . . . .

Fed continues to talk up U.S. inflation and rate hike ideas . . . good grief. U.S. housing market fallout next on ill-timed central bank rate hikes?

If one understands a crisis can be had in an up trending market, this might be The most important, and should be taken home, comment made on this site. If you see it you can manage it. If you don't well you won't be alone.

Currency collapse spreading . . . now India Rupee and South Africa Rand overnight.
Pakistan appears on the edge of default.

VIX volatility may sprint higher on fallout. Gold remains under heavy pressure . . . .

Could this be the canary? A deflationary collapse? Housing collapse? Trump led depression and does history repeat.?
