Q: I am interested in picking a US materials Co as a play on infrastructure spending and to balance my portfolio. I am considering Martin Marietta, US Lime & Minerals, Eagle materials and Quanta services. My only materials holding at present is Agnico Eagle mines (1.6%). I am a moderate risk investor. Of these 4, which you would comfortably buy today with greatest growth potential. Secondly which two seem to you to be least risky. Finally is there another company you would prefer to any of these and if so what would be your reasoning for that pick. Thanks as always.

Q: Hi All;

I am looking through potential Materials companies for an investment and note in many questions here you single out EXP as a preferred investment in construction materials. Who would be their largest 3 competitors in this business segment, and of the 4 how would you rank them in terms of potential investment gains over a 5 year period?

Thanks,

Dave

Q: Interested in a pick in US building materials as a play on infrastructure spend but equities like Martin Marietta, Vulcan Materials, Granite Construction and Quanta seem expensive. However Eagle Materials appears cheaper. Of these 5 are there two you would comfortably buy today with greatest growth potential. Secondly which two seem to you to be least risky. Finally is there another building material equity you would prefer more than any of these and if so what would be your reasoning for that pick. Thanks as always.
