Transaction activity slows down in local Turkish structural steel market

Wednesday, 22 April 2015 18:29:01 (GMT+3)   |   Istanbul
According to market sources, prices in the local Turkish structural steel market have increased by TRY 35-50/mt during the past week depending on region, against the backdrop of the increased strength of the US dollar against the Turkish lira, causing sellers to revise their sales prices accordingly. Additionally, both buyers and sellers have maintained a wait-and-see approach to business amid the rapid fluctuations recorded in the US dollar-Turkish lira exchange rate. Hence, transaction activity in the local Turkish structural steel market has slowed down.
