Investment in Turkish ETFs on the New York Stock Exchange continues.

Intense Interest in Turkish ETFs

The New York Stock Exchange's iShares MSCI Turkey ETF is an exchange-traded fund that reflects the performance of Turkey's leading companies. It continued to attract investors' attention last week.

Increased Investor Demand and Fund Size

The fund closed its sixth consecutive week with net cash inflow, ranking among the best-performing funds globally. Last week, there was a new inflow of 6.2 million dollars into this fund, which tracks the MSCI Turkey Index. Thus, the fund's total asset size has increased to 345 million dollars, and the total investment amount since the beginning of 2026 has reached 100.8 million dollars.

Short Selling Rates Decrease

Another important data supporting the observed optimism in the market is the decline in the short selling rate on fund shares to its lowest levels in the past two years.

Outlook for 2026

Turkish stocks lagged behind the overall recovery wave in emerging markets in 2025 but managed to rank among the best-performing assets globally in 2026. Analysts highlight that the attractive multiples and low valuations offered by Turkish companies have drawn foreign fund managers back to the Turkish market. Year-to-date, it has been observed that international investors have injected a total of 1.5 billion dollars of net capital into the Turkish stock market.
