Today, the financial services confidence index will be monitored domestically, while manufacturing and service sector Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) data will be followed globally. From a technical perspective, it is noted that the 8,000 and 8,060 levels are resistance points for the BIST 100 index, while 7,900 and 7,800 points are support levels.
