Here’s what The London Company said about Martin Marietta Materials, Inc. (NYSE:MLM) in its Q2 2023 investor letter:

Martin Marietta Materials, Inc. (NYSE:MLM) – Shares of MLM outperformed during Q2, driven by improving sentiment around construction activity, along with strong quarterly results that demonstrated robust pricing power and continued margin expansion. Visibility in demand is improving with tailwinds supporting heavy non-residential and infrastructure projects over the medium-term, likely offsetting any temporary weakness in residential and light commercial activity. The company’s leadership position within aggregates and exposure to financially healthy states gives us confidence that it will benefit from growth in infrastructure and construction spending for many years.”
