Turkish import scrap prices remain firm

摘要

London—Deepsea Turkish import scrap prices remained firm Oct. 21, as sell-side sources noted rising collection prices and freight rates. S&P Global Platts assessed Turkish imports of premium heavy melting scrap 1/2 (80:20) at $290/mt CFR on Oct. 21, unchanged on day. Market talk regarding a Russia-origin sale of an HMS 1/2 (95:5) cargo to an Iskenderun mill at $298/mt CFR could not be confirmed at the time of publication, but sources said the cargo, if confirmed, would normalize to $289-$290/mt CFR for HMS 1/2 (80:20), based on previous sales.
