Cement Stocks Outlook for the week – 29.06.2015 to 03.07.2015
Seen range bound next week as rains progress

Cement stocks are expected to be range-bound next week due to progress in the southwest monsoon, which signals a weakening of demand and likely tepid Apr-Jun quarter earnings by cement companies. Major downward trend is not seen in cement stocks unless there is correction in the whole market, some adjustment might be seen in cement stocks. Stocks will move in the range of 5- 10%. Cement companies are likely to report weak results for Apr-Jun quarter. During monsoon, infrastructure activities slow down, so this quarter is going to be muted for the cement industry.

Government projects like smart city and Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation will take long time to implement. Cement stocks are good from the long-term perspective but shortterm view is negative because of monsoon and slow infrastructure activities. However, have a shortterm positive outlook for the stocks of ACC Ltd, Ambuja Cements Ltd and UltraTech Cement Ltd. UltraTech Cement's stocks would trade with positive bias next week.
