Over the past two weeks, Turkey's local scrap market has remained stable following the increased firmness observed on the deep and short sea scrap segments. Two Turkish mills even increased their domestic scrap prices by TRY 100-200/mt, but due to the depreciation of the Turkish lira against the US dollar, dollar-based quotations have fallen for all mills by $1-6/mt as compared to the levels in SteelOrbis' previous report published on July 17. For now, Turkey's domestic scrap market is expected to move sideways.
The general range in the local Turkish scrap market for the benchmark DKP grade scrap has remained unchanged at TRY 15,100-17,700/mt. Due to the fluctuations observed in the exchange rate, the dollar-based quotations have changed from $323-378/mt to $318-372/mt.
