Demand still weak in local Turkish CRC market

Friday, 31 July 2015 15:39:27 (GMT+3)   |   Shanghai
According to market sources, demand in the local Turkish cold rolled coil (CRC) market for local producers' products has remained quiet this week, while Turkish steel producers' CRC prices have declined by $30/mt over the past week to $480-500/mt ex-works, excluding 18 percent VAT, for September production.

On the other hand, demand for CRC in the local Turkish spot market is still sluggish, while traders' CRC prices have also declined by $30/mt during the past week. Market sources state that prices in the local Turkish spot market have been declining amid the soft trend of HRC prices, while ongoing political uncertainty has lead to economical concerns in the market. 

Meanwhile, spot CRC prices in the local Turkish market for July delivery are as follows:
