On July 13, China National Building Material (CNBM) fell 5.46% in regular trading, trading at HKD 3.97/share, with turnover of HKD 224 million.

On the news front, July marks the traditional off-season for cement demand, with institutions noting that weakening end-user demand constrains cement price hikes, and short-term cement prices are expected to remain on a downward trajectory. Industry data shows national cement market prices declined 0.9% week-over-week in early July, with average shipment rates at just 42.8% among key regional producers.

Within the Construction Materials sector, the stock's decline significantly exceeded peers on the same day, with Conch Cement down 1.96% and CR Building Materials Technology down 1.94%. The outsized decline reflects continued profit-taking pressure following a sharp prior rally driven by electronic fiberglass cloth price surges — the stock had risen over 16% in a single session in late June. Although the company's electronic cloth business remains in high demand amid AI computing growth, its cement core business faces seasonal headwinds, creating a dual pressure of valuation mean-reversion and fundamental softness.
