Turkish merchant bar producers have kept their domestic prices unchanged week on week on Turkish lira basis, with a decrease of $2/mt on US dollar basis, amid the ongoing currency fluctuations. One Iskenderun-based mill has issued its equal angle price at TRY 25,250/mt ($598/mt) ex-works today, November 11.
Most merchant bar sellers are offering either for deliveries in December or from stocks, depending on the size.
The general sentiment on the demand side is still negative.
