除去CEMEX集团在2007年7月购买Rinker 集团公司所花费的142亿美元,由于住房市场低迷,CEMEXE公司今年二季度预拌混凝土在美国的销售量相比去年同期。下降了29%。彭博补充说。

Cemex Hikes Cement Prices By $25 Per Cubic Yard
(Houston, Texas) - Cemex SAB, the U.S.'s largest cement firm and subsidiary of Monterrey, Mexico-based Cemex, announced that it will raise concrete prices by $25 a cubic yard.
In a statement carried by Bloomberg, Cemex said the hike will replace fuel surcharges and is effective Oct. 1. Prices of fuel, steel and asphalt continue to soar compared with the falling prices for ready-mix concrete, the company said.
The price increase will enable Cemex to forego fuel surcharges from contracts.
Excluding Cemex's July 2007 purchase of Rinker Group Ltd. for $14.2 billion, the cement firm's ready-mix concrete sales in the U.S. went down 29 percent in the second quarter over the same period last year due to a residential housing slump, Bloomberg added.
