GULF STEEL BILLET, REBAR: Uncertainty on rebar prices continues

The uncertainty about new domestic prices for steel rebar in the United Arab Emirates continued during the week ended Tuesday February 9, with trading subdued and no imports heard, sources told Fastmarkets.

Rebar producers in the UAE were expected to announce new prices next week, most probably after the Chinese New Year holiday (February 11-17).
