Spot rebar prices in Turkey’s Karabuk and Iskenderun regions have moved sideways today, August 16. In the meantime, although most buyers in the local Turkish rebar market have not returned from the holiday yet, rebar prices in the Marmara and Izmır regions have increased slightly due to the slight depreciation of the Turkish lira against the US dollar.
