As of today, August 4, official wire rod prices in Turkey have mostly risen by $5/mt except in the Iskenderun region where wire rod prices have remained unchanged, amid ongoing currency fluctuations and the upward trend of local rebar prices in line with high production cost.
According to sources, one Iskenderun-based mill is reported to be still testing a wire rod price of $585/mt ex-works, stable compared to a week ago, depending on the tonnage and payment terms.
According to sources, workable wire rod prices in Turkey are standing at $585-590/mt ex-works, up by $5/mt on the lower end over the past week. Sources report $595-600/mt ex-works still seems a bit high under the current market conditions. Most local buyers are refraining from new purchases due to the unclear financial situation in the country.
