As of today, July 13, Turkish wire rod prices have followed diverse trends. One Marmara-based mill has kept its official wire rod price stable today. One mill in Thrace increased its wire rod price by $40/mt at the end of last week and kept its wire rod price stable today. All wire rod deliveries are mainly for August or early September, while a limited tonnage is available from stocks depending on the size and quality
One Izmir-based mill is not quoting any wire rod price for now and is expected to announce its wire rod price by the beginning of next week. Moreover, the same situation is also seen in the Iskenderun region. As a result, most Turkish mills are taking their time to issue their new prices in order to monitor import scrap and billet prices after the holiday period.
