ISTANBUL, Feb 14 (Reuters) - Here are news, reports and
events that may affect Turkish financial markets on Tuesday.
The lira traded at 18.8425 against the dollar
early on Monday, little changed from Friday's close of 18.8360.
Istanbul's stock exchange operator has suspended trading
until Feb. 15 in the wake of last week's earthquakes.
GLOBAL MARKETS
Asian shares tracked a bounce on Wall Street on Tuesday, as
investors remained confident that key U.S. economic data due
later would show an easing in inflation, while the yen recouped
losses as Japan nominated a new central bank governor.
EARTHQUAKE
Rescuers were searching for more 'miracle' survivors under
the rubble on Monday, nearly a week after one of the worst
earthquakes to hit Turkey and Syria, as Turkish authorities
sought to maintain order across the disaster zone and began
legal action over building collapses.
With chances of finding more survivors growing more remote,
the toll in both countries from Monday's earthquake and major
aftershocks rose above 37,000 and looked set to keep growing.
