But are we relating this to the causes or to the effects of the crisis; and there is a tendency to confuse these two times – sometimes inten- tionally. In my opinion, while we may be at the end of the “sequence of causes” that generated the crisis, we are still right in the middle of the “effects” on the real economy and the consequences for our industry. A difficult 2009 passed by in a rush of continuous forecasts with everyone anxious to understand what the results of the “annus horribilis” would be. Now that the year had ended, we must take stock of the past events and look at what lies ahead to decide if we are able to see the light at the end of the tunnel. We now have the possibility to inter- pret the economic projections of 2010 already underway and also those of 2011 more clearly, enabling us to make better decisions for the present and, above all, to prepare for the future. We also know that we ourselves contribute in part to give a signal of hope, at least with our fervor of “entrepreneurial confidence” which we should not hold back even during such severe crises. The advancement of society and people – to which cement is closely linked – will undeniably start again. And I repeat to myself and to you shareholders – as a message of confidence – a fact, little known, that has always impressed me, i. e. after water, cement is the substance most used by man. Cement is part of the formidable trio – steel, oil, and cement – with which man has built the modern world. Confidence in our product is well placed but we also need to be aware that a large part of this world, in the West, has already been built and therefore that cement consumption’s center of gravity will shift – even more so after the crisis – to the East and to another hemisphere.
