            Demand for imported steel scrap was weakening in Turkey in late December as local metallurgists faced difficulties in selling finished steel products. In early January, however, buying interest increased slightly, and several deals were concluded at a bit higher prices.

            This week has finished without a single purchase of imported steel scrap by Turkish consumers, which is quite typical for this time of year. Local mills are currently focused on selling finished steel products. Meanwhile, main scrap producers have left the market for Christmas holidays.

            Turkish steel scrap importers have finished the week without any fresh deals due to a large gap in offer and demand prices. Moreover, neither exporters nor importers are so far ready to make at least any concessions to find a compromise in prices.
