Cement Outlook: 2009 Ed Sullivan, Chief Economist PCA

2 Introduction: Overview
Economic fundamentals are deteriorating quickly. Outlook shaped by policy actions. Details and size of the stimulus plan are fluid and still subject to considerable change….adds risk to PCA projections.

3 Introduction: The Need for Stimulus
Lacking stimulus, the economy enters a deep and long contraction GDP declines 2.7% in 2009 and another 1.5% in 2010 An additional 6 million more jobs lost and unemployment reaches 10.4% State deficits reach $79 billion in 2009, $102 billion in 2010. Cement consumption declines 15% in 2009 followed by another 8.5% in 2010. Single Family housing starts decline to 400,000 annually in 2009 and Significant recovery does not materialize until 2012.

11 Introduction: The Need for Stimulus
Obama’s $775 billion plan may not be enough. Obama economists expect an additional 2.8 million jobs lost. And plan aimed at creating /saving 3.7 million jobs. PCA estimates that 8.5 million jobs may need to be created/saved. Stimulus plan required = $1.2 trillion. House Appropriations = $825 billion – size of stimulus increasing in recognition of greater economic adversity. More increases required… but …taxpayer backlash may hinder size and hence economic outcomes.

12 Economic Policy Actions

13 Introduction: Stimulus Overview
Details and size of the stimulus plan are fluid and still subject to considerable change….adds risk to PCA projections. Based on what is on the table now, several assessments can be made: Tax cuts will only temporarily mask weak fundamentals – not a job creator or sustainable change in growth path. State Aid and “Hard Infrastructure” are largest job creators/savers. Shovel Ready projects may materialize later than many expect and with less stimulatory and job creation impact than “Hard Infrastructure” investment.

14 “Shovel Ready” Timeline

Policy Tool Objective 2009 2010 2011 Job Saving Job Creating Tax Cuts, Entitlement Spending, State Aid Stabilize Economy, halt adverse momentum Phase I Shovel Ready Projects Job Creation Phase II Job Creation, Address Structural Economic Issues Long Term Investments Phase III

16 Economic Growth Outlook

17 Stimulus: GDP Impacts 2009-2010 2009-2010
Change in GDP From No Stimulus Scenario Obama Economists PCA GDP 4th Q 2010: $12.2 Trillion GDP 4th Q 2010: $11.6 Trillion Note: Stimulus in PCA Outlook Overlaid upon weaker Fundamentals.

18 Stimulus: Job Creation Estimates
Million Jobs Obama Economists PCA Unemployment: 8.8% Unemployment: 7.0% Job Estimates have large impacts on Cement/Concrete recovery assessments.

19 Stimulus: Infrastructure Job Creation Estimates
