“When such a situation arises, people’s first reaction is to secure their savings. And the most accessible and safe tool, as it seems to them, is the currency withdrawal, which determines the demand for the growing dollar. Of course, banks and foreign exchange sellers take advantage of this situation and inflate the exchange rate.”
He noted that there was no serious factor for the growth of the currency and the information noise passed quickly. According to him, the ceiling of the rate will be reached in the near future, and then a correction will be made.
