Movement Alert|Conch Cement Falls 3.04% in Regular Trading, Construction Materials Sector Under Broad Selling Pressure

Market Focus07-07

On July 7, Conch Cement (00914.HK) fell 3.04% in regular trading, trading at 16.58 HKD/share, with turnover of approximately 30.92 million HKD.

The decline came amid broad weakness across the construction materials and cement sector. Recent industry research reports indicate that national cement demand continues to trend downward, with the housing construction market remaining persistently weak. Supply-demand imbalances have become pronounced, and industry-wide profit margins have contracted significantly compared to prior periods.

Within the Construction Materials sector, peer stocks declined broadly. CNBM fell 5.19%, CR Building Materials Technology dropped 3.77%, Huaxin Building Materials slid 3.07%, Dongwu Cement declined 1.70%, and West China Cement fell 1.30%. Goldman Sachs had previously trimmed earnings forecasts for the cement sector, citing soft pricing in the second quarter due to weak construction demand, though the firm expects demand to stabilize in the second half as central government infrastructure financing support increases.
