Billet

Billet price was upward during last week in Iran domestic market from USD 542 /mt to USD 551/mt ex-work including 9% VAT. Main reasons for the price increase was higher base price at IME ( Iran Mercantile Exchange), upward global prices and market's expectation that export volume would increase. However, most of the billet offered on IME was not sold.

However, just less than half of the rebar offered at IME was sold. After IME transactions were closed, rebars that had been bought cheaper during previous weeks entered the market and made it quiet.
