Delayed publication of Turkish domestic prices

The publication of Fastmarkets’ price assessments for MB-STE-0093 Turkey domestic auto bundle scrap and MB-STE-0094 Turkey domestic melting scrap from shipbreaking for June 17 were delayed due to a reporter error.

The price assessments should have been rolled over on June 17 due to the Eid al-Adha (Kurban Bayramı) public holiday.

The following prices were affected:

MB-STE-0093 Steel scrap, auto bundle scrap, domestic, delivered Turkey

MB-STE-0094 Steel scrap melting scrap from shipbreaking, domestic, delivered Turkey

Due to the nature of the delay, these prices will not be backfilled.
