Thailand books 15,000 MT billets from Russia - This week, a deal of quantity  15,000 MT has been concluded for which shipment is scheduled in Jun’19. The trade price of the shipment was reported to be USD 450/MT, CFR Thailand

The trade sentiments are reported supportive and are expected to remain in the form for some time.  According to SteelMint analysis, US sanctions on Iran will lead to  billet trades, more within South East Asian countries.

In last couple of days, imported scrap prices in Turkey have recovered by USD 5-7/MT in fresh deals concluded.
