Turkish domestic merchant bar market

In the Turkish domestic market, the lack of supply observed on the billet side has also pushed finished steel prices up. Although merchant bar prices have accelerated in general, lower prices are heard in some regions. Meanwhile, it is not possible to talk about a corresponding increase in terms of demand. As of today, April 14, merchant bar prices in the Turkish domestic market, depending on size, thickness and region, are at the following levels: small IPN-UPN are priced at TRY 820-840/mt ($521-534/mt), angles are at TRY 780-830/mt ($496-528/mt), while flat bars and square bars are at TRY 780-830/mt ($496-528/mt) - all prices are ex-works, on actual weight basis and excluding VAT. Also, it should be considered that some mills may give offers below these levels depending on stock levels.
