Over the past two weeks, Turkey’s local scrap market has continued its downward trend amid the ongoing declines observed in deep and short sea scrap prices. Turkish mills have dropped their domestic scrap prices by TRY 100-600/mt or $2-13/mt since SteelOrbis’ previous report published on July 3. This trend is expected to continue in the coming days as Turkish mills are trying to limit their costs given their lack of profitable steel sales.
The general range in the local Turkish scrap market for the benchmark DKP grade scrap has moved down from TRY 15,400-18,300/mt to TRY 15,100-17,700/mt. Due to the fluctuations observed in the exchange rate, the dollar-based quotations have changed from $329-391/mt to $323-378/mt.
