0853 GMT - The impact of a Trump administration on European building and construction stocks will be relatively limited, Jefferies analysts write in a research note. Should Trump bring an end to the war in Ukraine, then companies with a presence in Eastern Europe should benefit, they add. CRH has cement plants in Ukraine and a significant presence in the rest of Eastern Europe, and would likely be a beneficiary, they add. The analysts say Heidelberg Materials and Holcim have exposure to the region and could also benefit. Sika and Saint-Gobain would benefit indirectly via increased demand for construction chemicals required for cement in the region, they add. (adam.whittaker@wsj.com)
