Over the past week, a few Turkish merchant bar re-rollers have raised their offers by $10/mt amid the ongoing currency fluctuations and stable import billet prices. Currently, official ex-Turkey equal angle offers are standing at $620-640/mt FOB, versus $610-630/mt FOB a week ago, for September-early October shipment.
The SteelOrbis daily Turkish billet import reference price stands at $480-500/mt CFR, stable compared to a week ago. Demand is relatively moderate, though most international buyers are postponing their purchases in order to monitor the import scrap price trend.
