Shares of Australian building products makers drop after local media reported the country will not be exempt from U.S. steel and aluminium tariffs that President Donald Trump's administration will impose

Shares in Brambles BXB.AX which makes pallets, dropped as much as 3% to their lowest since February 25

James Hardie Industries JHX.AX, a fiber cement maker, slumped up to 3.2%
