According to the statistics of the reporter of the securities times, among the pharmaceutical stocks with a market value of more than 100 million yuan held by the fund, nearly 50 funds increased month on month in the fourth quarter. These pharmaceutical stocks have the following characteristics:

First of all, there are 11 Traditional Chinese medicine stocks, with the largest number in the subdivided industries.

A pharmaceutical analyst told reporters that with the centralized mining entering the deep-water area, more and more funds treat the pharmaceutical industry as a public utility, and the valuation level should be equivalent to that of public utilities. In this context, some pharmaceutical funds have turned to traditional Chinese medicine stocks with friendly policies, good performance growth and low valuation. Moreover, the raw material cost of traditional Chinese medicine is low, and even the price rise has little pressure on the preparation. In addition, the valuation of vaccine and pharmaceutical upstream enterprises immunized by the centralized purchase policy is also attractive after a large adjustment.

Recently, the national standing committee pointed out the need to promote the normalization and institutionalization of centralized volume procurement and speed up its expansion. This means that after drugs, China's medical devices will also face long-term pressure of procurement.

CXO is the sector with the most serious decline in the market value of fund holdings in the fourth quarter. Among them, the stock market value of Wuxi Apptec Co.Ltd(603259) fund is more than 25 billion yuan less than that at the end of the third quarter, and the stock market value of Hangzhou Tigermed Consulting Co.Ltd(300347) fund is more than 10 billion yuan less than that at the end of the third quarter; In terms of shareholding ratio, the shareholding ratio of Shanghai Medicilon Inc(688202) , Joinn Laboratories (China) Co.Ltd(603127) , Pharmablock Sciences (Nanjing) Inc(300725) and other funds decreased by more than 5 percentage points month on month.
