US Dollar Supply Surges By 51% In Forex Market As Naira Records Gain by nlfpmod(mod): 5:55pm On Feb 22, 2024
The US Dollar supply turnover at Wednesday’s official foreign exchange market surged by 51 per cent to $240.72 million as the Naira recorded marginal gains.

FMDQ data showed that FX Turnover increased to $240.72 million on Wednesday from $117.32 million on Tuesday.

The figure represented a $123.4 million FX turnover increase at the close of trade on Wednesday.

The development led to the appreciation of the Naira to N1,542.58 per US dollar on Wednesday from 1,551.24 on Tuesday.

DAILY POST gathered that this is the second time the nation’s currency has appreciated against the US dollar at the official foreign market since last Thursday.

DAILY POST recalls that the turnover of US Dollar supply at Tuesday’s official foreign exchange market surged by 76.61 per cent to $117.32 million as the Naira appreciated.

However, at the parallel market, the Naira dropped N1,860 per US dollar on Wednesday from N1,740.00 on Tuesday.

Meanwhile, at Binance, a P2P market, Naira appreciated N1,608 per US dollar on Wednesday from N1,936 on Tuesday, amid reported access restrictions in Nigeria.

The development came days after operatives of the Economic and Financial Crime Commission, EFCC, raided illegal Bureau De Change operators in Abuja, Lagos, Kano and Oyo states.

DAILY POST recalls that in the past weeks, the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, has rolled out several policies to checkmate the continued fluctuations of the Naira in the FX market.

Official rate decreased while black market increased.

The actual problem has been the gap between these two. As long as the difference continues to widen, people will find creative means of taking advantage of arbitrage.
The result would be artificial scarcity.

Nigeria is too populated for A black man to manage. a black president cannot rule more than 50million population effectively so dive Nigeria into 4 or 5 nation so they can thrive

Lol speculation is the reason why BTC is what it is today. If more persons believe that a particular asset will go up, chances are it will continue to go up because "people of means" will continue to buy the dip.

No end in sight for the free fall of Naira.
