Turkish merchant bar producers have kept their official domestic merchant bar prices unchanged on Turkish lira basis, while their prices are down by $2-3/mt in US dollars amid the ongoing currency fluctuations. One Iskenderun-based mill issued its equal angle price at TRY 29,000/mt ($626/mt) ex-works today, June 16, also stable on lira basis but down by $3/mt on dollar basis over the same period.
Most merchant bar sellers are offering either for deliveries in late July or from stocks, depending on the size.
