Q: Hello 5i Team,

Could you please rank these 5 US stocks in the home-building and building materials sector for a 3-5 year hold and include a brief explanation.

Are there any others you would consider (not including HVAC)?

Thanks for your always helpful advice!

Q: The markets are showing signs of change.
Kindly order these stocks in order of growth opportunity. Do you think that LAC has begun a turnaround, that it is worth investing in now?
Thank you!

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: I've been looking at both of these companies but can only add one. BLDR seems to have a better performance looking backwards but you seem to like AXON better looking forwards. Can you tell me which one you like better and why, thanks.

Q: Hi,

Home builders seems to be doing well in the U.S. Do you think a housing boom is underway ? Is it too late to invest in the sector ? If you were to invest, which would be your picks for strong growth ? Short term ? Long term ?

Thank you for your most valuable advice,

Jacques IDS

Q: I'm finding it difficult finding American companies with the ability to grow their profits over the near future. (lots of noise out there - inflation, war, debt etc.). I would appreciate your opinion regarding the ability of Builders to award investors with above average returns over the next few years. Also, if you have better ideas in this sector I would invite your suggestions. Thank-you for your continued support of the little guy.

Q: Hello 5i Research Team,

David Berman's recent article in the Globe suggested that now may be a good time to buy beaten down stocks in the US home building industry (i.e. builders and suppliers). Would you agree? Either way, could you please rank the listed stocks for a 5-year hold for an investor with an above-average level of risk, and add any better names I've missed.

Thanks!
