Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Industry consolidation in plasterboard and brick capacity leads to a less competitive operating environment for CSR.

Bears

The structural decline in brick use is hastened by labor shortages, reducing demand relative to non-brick building product alternatives which CSR has a limited exposure to.
