Turkey Turkish steel mills purchased just two cargoes this week, at decreasing prices, following a fall in Turkish domestic and export steel prices, affected by the weakening sentiment on the Chinese market.
The price of scrap to Turkey moved down by $12 per tonne from the start to the end of the week, prompting concern about a possible downward correction in all the other key global markets.
