January 7, 2020--Market Outlook
Needless to say, the crypto asset market has been off to a strong start thus far in 2020 with the entire crypto asset market posting extremely positive returns.

IMF Staff Country Report-Turkey: Selected Issues
December 26, 2019--1. Turkey's economy has grown rapidly over the past decade, mainly by increasing inputs. With an average annual real growth of around 5½ percent over the last 10 years, Turkey has been one of the fastest growing economies in G20 and other larger emerging markets. However, growth has become more unbalanced. Strong post-2009 output growth has been largely due to increased capital accumulation, driven by construction investment activities and financed, in large part externally, and by rapid credit growth.
Labor inputs also contributed positively to growth, supported by a pick-up in female labor force participation-but its contribution appears to have leveled off in recent years. Over the same period, the high investment rate (greater than the neo-classical golden rule benchmark would suggest), together with high inflation and elevated private sector and external debt, point to past over-investment.1
