Economist Gökhan Işıl said lower oil prices could ease Turkey’s energy costs, but high U.S. interest rates and risks to energy shipping may limit that benefit. He also noted that upcoming U.S. inflation data could affect expectations for Federal Reserve rates, the dollar, and financing costs for emerging markets including Turkey.
