July 04, 2020 / www.metalbulletin.com / Article Link

CIS export billet prices fell during the week to Friday July 3, pressured by lower bids from customers amid insufficient demand, sources told Fastmarkets.

Most mills took a wait-and-see position, preferring to assess the situation in the market, while those who offered indicated prices at around $370 per tonne fob Black Sea or the equivalent. This is down from $370-375 per tonne fob last week.
"Mills are negotiating under the table and are not disclosing the outcome now," a trading source said.
Another source said that CIS mills were in no hurry to sell new allocations.
Meanwhile, customers were bidding at lower levels.
