Iranian rial loses 13% of value in under two weeks despite Hormuz opening

TL;DR

Despite the US-Iran memorandum of understanding and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, the Iranian rial is trading around 1.7 million to the dollar — down from 1.52 million at the time of signing. The currency is depreciating and inflation is rising even as Iran ramps up oil sales after the lifting of the US blockade, according to reports monitored by Abu Ali Express.
