Same story in forging. Annual contracts without index are basically broken now.

Hedging through trader inventory helped during the last spike, but carrying cost is real.

We blend 70% index + 30% fixed for 12 months. Both sides can live with it.

Index-linked pricing with quarterly resets is standard in our steel contracts now.
