As lira finds stability, Turkey’s president calls for boycott on U.S. electronic devices
(Global Edition) From the BBC World Service…Turkey’s currency is seeing a pop higher today as the country’s president calls for a boycott on U.S. electronic goods – further straining economic relations with America.

Then, Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro said fuel prices in his country will rise to international levels, ending the government’s policy of gas subsidies – but what do higher prices mean for people who are already suffering from sky-high inflation and a troubled economic picture? Afterwards, while Australia’s GDP has clocked growth in the country at 3 percent, another gauge tells a different story about the economy.
