Martin Cobb, ASIPCRH PLCCRHHOLDMay 22, 2026

Building materials at the rough end. Good history of running the business and allocating capital, but cyclical. Times are tough. Don't worry too much about the short term, tune out any short-term noise.

It's the ideal tool to help you make quicker, more informed decisions for managing and tracking your investments.

You might be interested:

TRADE

Benefits from infrastructure projects. Believes it has a lot of exposure to roadwork asphalt, but also relatively diversified businesses that grow. Track record and dividend are good.

Likes it, but it doesn't do anything completely different than others. When it goes on sale, you can buy it for a trade.

TOP PICK

Ready-mix concrete, cement, and aggregate (the crown jewel). UK company that's re-listing in the US as its primary listing. Undiscovered gem in US market. High quality. Taps into aging infrastructure of USA. Needed for activity around data centres and energy generation. Creates more demand for an already-tight supply market.

The environment will give it more scale, more pricing power. Well managed. Index inclusion ahead. Yield is 1.30%.

(Analysts’ price target is $121.32)
BUY

He's bullish materials in this macro climate, and CRH is the biggest of the bunch.

BUY

A very cyclical company in construction materials. Lower interest rates should help the flagging housing industry. Benefits from infrastructure spending and have reported good numbers recently.

PARTIAL BUY
A conglomerate in the asphalt, concrete, windows, etc. In an environment where infrastructure projects will be going forward. It is the kind of company with shovel heavy projects. If there will be shovel heavy projects, it could benefit in the US. Interesting company worth looking at.
WATCH

Thinks this will do quite well in time. Growth by acquisition story. He has trouble with the debt on the books. A very good company, but it will be cyclical. You have to buy at the right time in the cycle. Put it on your watch list.

BUY
Manufactures cement, concrete products, aggregates. Will benefit from governments spending. Better balance sheet and evaluation than Cemex (CX-N).
