Increase in the Turkish domestic merchant bar market

Wednesday, 12 August 2009 16:09:31 (GMT+3)   |  
Strong raw material and semi-finished prices and the $/TRY exchange rate have helped to push domestic merchant bar offers up. As of today, August 12, merchant bar prices in the Turkish domestic market, depending on size, thickness and region, are at the following levels: small IPN-UPN are priced at TRY 840-860/mt ($559-572/mt), angles are at TRY 815-860/mt ($542-572/mt), while flat bars and square bars are at TRY 815-870/mt ($542-578/mt) - all prices are ex-works, on actual weight basis and excluding VAT.

Also, it should be considered that some mills may give offers below these levels depending on their stocks.
