How to apply it to a cargo

• HRC at $1,392.00/st is the downstream steel screen. FeSi/SiMn follow melt rates; they do not print on the same ticker.
• COMEX copper $6.650/lb (+2.18%) — industrial metal beta that often moves with special-bar and alloy demand.

Map the screen to a real parcel through Iron Alloys & Ferroalloys Supply and, where freight dominates the landed bill, vessel chartering or cargo logistics.
