## Resource

Building materials stocks took a hit after Q1 earnings, with sector-wide revenue beating estimates by 1.4% but next-quarter guidance falling 2.5% short. Vulcan Materials led with a 7.4% revenue surge and a 5.8% earnings beat, while Valmont soared 29% post-report on strong results. UFP Industries stumbled, posting an 8.4% revenue drop and the sector’s worst performance, dragging its stock down 9.1%. It’s a mixed bag — some shine, others sink.
