Why Material Prices Change So Fast in Construction?

These days material prices go up and down very quick. Sometimes steel or concrete cost change even in one week, and it make estimating very hard. I found this helpful for planning my takeoffs: LINK
How you manage sudden price changes in your projects? Do you update your estimates every week or just follow supplier quotes? I want to know how others deal with this problem on site.

Tariffs do have an impact on a decent amount of construction and building materials. Typically quotes on concrete are good for 30 days. Can't speak to any other building material.
