Why Borsa Istanbul matters

Borsa Istanbul (BIST) is the largest and most liquid stock exchange in the wider EMEA emerging-markets region (after Saudi Tadawul). The Turkish equity market is unusual because the macro overlay is extreme — chronic high inflation (often 40–70% YoY in recent years), aggressive central bank policy swings, and a currency (TRY) that has depreciated dramatically against the USD — which produces some of the most extreme valuation dispersions in the EM universe (single-digit P/Es alongside triple-digit nominal annual returns). For value-oriented EM investors, BIST is one of the most-studied "asymmetric risk/reward" markets in the world.

BIST is home to many globally relevant Turkish names:

• Akbank (AKBNK) — one of Turkey's top private-sector banks (Sabancı-controlled).
• Garanti BBVA (GARAN) — Turkish banking subsidiary of Spain's BBVA.
• Türkiye Iş Bankası (ISCTR) — Turkey's largest and oldest commercial bank by assets.
• Koç Holding (KCHOL) — Turkey's largest diversified conglomerate (parent of Tüpraş, Tofaş, Ford Otosan, Arçelik).
• Sabancı Holding (SAHOL) — diversified conglomerate (Akbank, Enerjisa, Çimsa, Brisa, Carrefoursa).
• Turkish Airlines (THYAO) — the national flag carrier, one of the most profitable airlines in the world by route network.
• Ereğli Demir ve Çelik (EREGL) — Turkey's largest integrated steel producer.
• BIM Birleşik Mağazalar (BIMAS) — Turkish discount retailer, one of the cheapest grocery chains in Europe.
• ASELSAN (ASELS) — defense-electronics national champion.
• Tüpraş (TUPRS) — Turkey's largest oil refiner.
• Petkim (PETKM) — major petrochemical complex owned by SOCAR (Azerbaijan).

The BIST 30 is the headline Turkish blue-chip benchmark, comparable to the FTSE 100 in the UK, DAX 40 in Germany, Saudi TASI, or Nikkei 225 in Japan. BIST 100 is the broader 100-name index, while the BIST main board (BIST-all) covers around 500 listed equities. Turkish equities have been MSCI Emerging Markets-eligible for decades and are a non-trivial component of MSCI EM, FTSE EM, and frontier-tilt baskets.

Inputs

Input	Type	Default	What it does
index	enum	BIST30	Market scope: BIST30 (Borsa Istanbul 30 blue-chips) or BIST100 (broader 100-name benchmark) or BIST-all (entire ~500-name main-board universe).
limit	integer	30	Max stocks to return, sorted by market cap desc. 1–2000.
min_market_cap_try_billion	integer	0	Floor on market cap in billions of TRY. 0 = no filter.
sector	string	""	Case-insensitive substring filter on sector / industry / company name. Requires enrich_fundamentals=true for the sector/industry match path.
enrich_fundamentals	boolean	false	Hit each stock's detail page to extract P/E, EPS, dividend yield, sector, etc. Roughly doubles runtime.
proxyConfiguration	object	{useApifyProxy: true}	Standard Apify proxy block. Default datacenter proxy is fine.

Recipe examples

BIST 30 daily snapshot (lightweight, top 30 blue-chips):

{ "index": "BIST30", "limit": 30 }

Returns all BIST 30 constituents with price, market cap, % change — no enrichment overhead. Perfect for a daily Turkish portfolio dashboard or market-open digest.

Turkish banks deep dive (Akbank, Garanti, Iş Bankası, Yapı Kredi, Halkbank, VakıfBank, QNB Türkiye):

{ "index": "BIST100", "sector": "bank", "enrich_fundamentals": true, "limit": 50 }

Returns all major Turkish banks with full fundamentals so you can compare P/E, P/B, dividend yields side-by-side. Turkish banks frequently trade at single-digit P/Es and surprisingly high book values — distorted by macro volatility but rich for value screens.

Full Borsa Istanbul universe sweep:

{ "index": "BIST-all", "limit": 500 }

Mega-caps only (200B+ TRY market cap):

{ "index": "BIST-all", "min_market_cap_try_billion": 200, "limit": 25 }

Holding companies (Koç, Sabancı, Eczacıbaşı, Doğuş, AG Anadolu, Net Holding, Bera):

{ "index": "BIST100", "sector": "holding", "enrich_fundamentals": true }

Turkish industrial / steel / cement (Ereğli, Kardemir, Çimsa, Akçansa, Tüpraş):

{ "index": "BIST100", "sector": "steel", "enrich_fundamentals": true }

Turkish airlines & travel (THYAO Turkish Airlines, PGSUS Pegasus, TAVHL TAV airports):

{ "index": "BIST100", "sector": "airline", "enrich_fundamentals": true }

How it works

The actor scrapes stockanalysis.com/list/borsa-istanbul/, a clean server-rendered universe page that aggregates every BIST-listed name sorted by market cap. The full ~500-stock universe fits on a single page, so no pagination is required — we get the entire Turkish market in one HTTP request. We then filter by index scope (BIST30 / BIST100 / BIST-all), market-cap floor, and (optionally) sector keyword.

When enrich_fundamentals=true, we additionally hit each stock's /quote/ist/{symbol}/ detail page, parse the structured statistics tables, and add P/E, EPS, dividend, 52-week range, beta, sector, and industry to each record. Enrichment runs at concurrency 5 to be a polite scraper. Typical runtime: 10 stocks ≈ 5 seconds without enrichment, ~15 seconds with.

BIST 30 / BIST 100 membership — The actor ships with the BIST 30 and BIST 100 constituent lists embedded for instant is_bist30 / is_bist100 flagging and index=BIST30 / index=BIST100 filtering. We also apply fallback large-cap rules so any constituent missing from the embedded list (recent reshuffles, IPOs) is still included when its market cap clears the relevant band.

Currency notation — Borsa Istanbul prices and market caps are quoted in Turkish Lira (TRY). The TRY has been highly volatile — Turkish inflation routinely hits 40–70% YoY and the lira has depreciated sharply against the dollar over multiple cycles. We expose both price_try / market_cap_billion_try and price_usd / market_cap_billion_usd. The USD translation uses a configurable assumption (default: 38 TRY per USD; override with env var FX_TRY_PER_USD for daily-precise conversion) — we record fx_rate_try_per_usd on every row for transparency and auditability.

Native ticker filter — Turkish BIST tickers are uniformly 3–6 letter alphabetic codes (e.g. AKBNK, GARAN, THYAO). We filter to that pattern by default to keep the universe clean and skip any aberrant or non-equity rows.

Pricing — Pay Per Event

This actor uses Apify's Pay-Per-Event pricing — you only pay for what you actually pull, no monthly fees, no commitments, no annual contracts. Compare that to Bloomberg Terminal at ~$2,000/month per seat, LSEG Workspace at ~$1,800/month, or FactSet at ~$1,500/month: even pulling the full Borsa Istanbul universe every trading day, you'd recover the cost in well under a week of analyst time saved.

Event	Price	When charged
Actor start	$0.01	Once when the run begins
BIST stock record	$0.25	Per Turkish-listed stock record returned with price, market cap, P/E, P/B, dividend yield, sector, fundamentals

Worked examples (USD):

• 10-stock smoke test: $0.01 + 10 × $0.25 = $2.51
• BIST 30 daily sweep: $0.01 + 30 × $0.25 = $7.51
• BIST 100 with fundamentals: $0.01 + 100 × $0.25 = $25.01
• Full BIST universe (~500 names): $0.01 + 500 × $0.25 = $125.01

For comparison, a single Bloomberg Terminal seat is ~$24,000/year. This actor delivers the equivalent Turkish-equity coverage at well under 1% of that, with no contract, no minimum, and no negotiation.

FAQ

What are BIST market hours? Borsa Istanbul trades Monday through Friday, 10:00 to 18:00 Turkey Time (TRT = UTC+3), with a mid-session break around 13:00–14:00. Run this actor anytime; quotes are last-close on weekends.

Why TRY and USD both? Borsa Istanbul natively quotes in Turkish Lira, but the TRY has been highly volatile — Turkish inflation regularly runs 40–70% YoY and the lira has depreciated sharply against the dollar across multiple macro cycles. We surface both so you can plug into either workflow: TRY-native books or USD-translated EM portfolios. For daily-precise FX conversion, override the actor's FX assumption with the FX_TRY_PER_USD env var.

Why are P/E ratios so low on BIST? Turkish equities frequently trade at single-digit P/Es, which surprises investors used to developed-market multiples. This reflects the high inflation environment, TRY depreciation risk, and Turkey's higher cost of equity capital. For long-horizon value investors who can hedge or accept TRY risk, this is part of the BIST opportunity set.

Is Akbank or Garanti BBVA Sharia-compliant? Neither Akbank nor Garanti BBVA are Islamic banks — they're conventional commercial banks. Turkish participation banks (Islamic banks) include Albaraka Türk (ALBRK), Kuveyt Türk, and Türkiye Finans, some of which appear on BIST.

What about Turkish ADRs? Some Turkish names are also available as ADRs in the US (e.g. Turkcell as TKC on NYSE). This actor focuses on native BIST tickers; for ADR coverage use a US-listed screener and cross-reference by Yahoo's .IS ticker.

Rate limits / blocking? We use Apify's datacenter proxy by default. Stockanalysis.com is generally cooperative. If you hit any limit, switch to RESIDENTIAL group in proxy config.

Can I run this on a schedule? Yes — every Apify actor supports cron scheduling. Run it at 18:30 TRT daily (15:30 UTC) for a BIST market-close snapshot.
