Ex-CIS billet offers for Turkey continue their gradual decline

Thursday, 30 May 2013 16:50:01 (GMT+3)   |   Istanbul
According to market sources, ex-CIS billet offers have softened by $5/mt in the past week to $485-495/mt FOB. Meanwhile, a Ukrainian producer has sold billet to Egypt at the high price of $500/mt FOB.

On the other hand, ex-CIS billet offers for Turkey have maintained their gradual downtrend. This week, billet offers from the CIS to Turkey are heard at levels of $500-510/mt CFR, following some transactions concluded at $510-512/mt CFR last week. Expectations for a further price softening have prevented buyers from rushing to conclude purchases.
