How to apply it to a cargo
- Midwest HRC last $1,370.00/st (+6.45% d/d). A $30/st move on a 10,000 st parcel is about $300,000 before freight.
- USD/VND 25,840 VND (-0.19%). A Vietnamese mill paying in dong sees the local bill move even if the dollar invoice is unchanged.
- Vale at $12.40 (-5.05%) is an equity proxy for iron ore, not a 62% Fe index print — use it for direction, not for a contract.
Map the screen to a real parcel through Industrial & Structural Steel Products and, where freight dominates the landed bill, vessel chartering or cargo logistics.
