Asia markets dropped sharply on Monday as investor sentiment took a knock amid the renewed slump in the Turkish lira.
The Turkish lira has dropped about 41% against the US$ in August. So far it has dropped 85% this year. In 2012 to 2013 the lira was holding very well at around 1.7 lira to 1 US$. In today's trading, the lira reached an intra-day high of 7.0409 (-9.5%) from its Friday level of 6.4275 before recovering to around current level of 6.8795 (-7% within a day).
The country withe the worst financial crisis this year is Venezuela. Its currency the Venezualan Bolivar has dropped from its February level of 24,825 bolivar to 1 US$ to last Friday closing of 248,520 bolivar to 1 US$. The drop is 900%.
Which country is next in line ?

Hi Uncle Chan,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the analysis on distribution example... it will take me some time to digest... as it's not so clear cut like EMA and bollinger band... u had the USD / MYR chart previously, and i tot your 2.5 was possible but not sure how it can be achieved during previous administration... but after our new Tun took over, i tot it may be possible again... looking at the EURO crisis, i think this time money will flow to US and Asia from Europe.... just like what happened during Asian crisis where money flowed to Euro... but still for MYR, i think it may retest 4.30 to 4.40 again (without going above 4.5 or new high) before a Tun's move to change our monetary system... which may see ringgit going strong again for the next 10 years... just my thought...
regards and take care...
