JPMorgan notes housing starts have fallen short of expectations in 2018 in both Australia and the US. Housing starts fell -26% in the March quarter and approval volumes are firmly in decline, while leading indicators are weak. JPMorgan expects housing starts to fall -18% in 2019 and a further -3% in 2020 before recovering in 2021.

This is expected to provide a tough backdrop for Adelaide Brighton ((ABC)) and CSR ((CSR)), which are exposed 55% and 32%, respectively, to residential construction activity.
