Dow Jones11-27

2217 GMT - For building materials supplier James Hardie tough market conditions are stabilizing and inventory concerns are fading, Macquarie analysts say. "We are hopeful that the tide has turned on a few fronts and valuation remains attractive at this EPS ebb," the analysts say in a note. Investors will now be focused on the impact of rates and housing policy, they say. Macquarie reiterates an outperform rating and A$41.70 target. "An evolving AZEK integration story, a bottoming of markets and valuation are in support of our thesis," say the analysts. They also reckon recent governance changes might be positive. James Hardie last traded at A$29.75. (rhiannon.hoyle@wsj.com; @RhiannonHoyle)
