History on the Stock Exchange: Aselsan crosses the 2 trillion Lira mark
The Istanbul Stock Exchange marked a significant milestone today, as the Turkish defense giant Aselsan (ASELSAN) became the first company ever to see its market capitalization cross the 2 trillion Turkish Lira threshold. According to the report in Borsa Hisse Haber, the company solidified its position as a pioneer in the Turkish capital market by reaching this peak.
The achievement received extensive coverage in the country's economic media. In Sansürsüz Medya +18, which often reports in a factual tone and relies on the state news agency Anadolu (AA), it was noted that "ASELSAN, Borsa İstanbul’da piyasa değeri 2.000.000.000.000 TL’yi aşan ilk şirket oldu".
Other sources also confirmed the dramatic figures. On the channel Ekonomi Haberleri 🇹🇷 they described the move as a "breaking a new record", while Haber Gündem emphasized that this is "record after record" for the company that has become a national pioneer.
The rise in the stock price, which reached a level of 442 Lira, is attributed according to reports to an increase in demand for shares in the defense industries sector, against the backdrop of global tensions and the search for a "safe haven" among investors. These data underscore Aselsan's economic strength as an anchor in the Turkish defense industry.
