In most regional markets for square billets, prices rose slightly in April—by $10–15 per ton. The exception was the Persian Gulf countries, where prices fell by $8 to $516/t (CFR), after average prices had previously surged by $79 per ton in March due to logistical issues stemming from the war in the region and a shortage caused by the suspension of Iranian billet shipments.
