With a market cap of $35.5 billion, Vulcan Materials Company (VMC) produces and supplies construction aggregates such as crushed stone, sand, and gravel for infrastructure and building projects. Headquartered in Birmingham, Alabama, the company operates through three main segments: Aggregates, Asphalt, and Concrete.
Companies valued more than $10 billion are generally considered “large-cap” stocks, and Vulcan Materials fits this criterion perfectly. Its materials are widely used in highways, public works, railroads, and residential, commercial, and industrial construction.
