Building material counters on track to benefit


It said in a statement that Lafarge Cement Sdn Bhd would supply cement from now to Dec 31, 2019 to all eight packages of work for the project.

PETALING JAYA: Building material counters are expected to be the next thematic play on the local equity market, boosted by expectations that the government would revive the East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) project.

Seen as the beneficiaries of the positive spillover effects if the ECRL project is resumed, several cement and steel players already saw their share prices rallying yesterday after Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng said the final decision on the rail project would be finalised soon.
