Masco Deep Value Investment Research
Masco is a North American home-improvement building-products brand portfolio anchored by Behr paint, Delta plumbing, and repair-and-remodel demand, with solid cash flow and disciplined buybacks. The business quality is sound, but growth is slow, dependence on The Home Depot is high, and the current share price of about USD 70 is already close to fair value with limited margin of safety. Report rating Watch: a good company at a broadly fair price, with an ideal buy range of USD 55 to 60.

Martin Marietta: A Long-Term Owner's Study of the U.S. Aggregates Leader
The second-largest U.S. aggregates producer, a regional oligopolist built on scarce quarries and roughly 85-year reserve lives. Its headline 13.7x PE is distorted by a one-off 2026 Q1 discontinued-operations gain; on Owner Earnings it actually trades at 33-38x, and the $574 price already discounts the optimistic case. Rating Watch: a fine business, but likely not a good price today.
