Weekly view of basic chemical industry: affected by geopolitical factors and the expectation of insufficient production potential, WTI crude oil futures prices continued to rise this week, breaking through the $90 mark and reaching a new high in seven years. At the end of 2021, the central economic work conference made it clear that the new renewable energy and raw material energy consumption will not be included in the total energy consumption control, and create conditions to realize the transformation from "dual control" of energy consumption to "dual control" of carbon emission and intensity as soon as possible, so as to benefit the industry leading enterprises Shandong Hualu-Hengsheng Chemical Co.Ltd(600426) and Rongsheng Petro Chemical Co.Ltd(002493) with high proportion of raw material energy consumption, strong cost control ability and perfect environmental protection system. In addition, the downstream pesticide, modified plastics and sweetener industries can continue to pay attention. Key target concerns:
Longtou white horse: Shandong Hualu-Hengsheng Chemical Co.Ltd(600426) (600426), Rongsheng Petro Chemical Co.Ltd(002493) (002493)
Pesticide: Jiangsu Yangnong Chemical Co.Ltd(600486) (600486)
Modified plastics: Kingfa Sci.& Tech.Co.Ltd(600143) (600143)
Sweetener: Anhui Jinhe Industrial Co.Ltd(002597) (002597)
Risk warning: downstream demand is less than expected; Product price and price difference fall; Intensified industry competition, etc.
