On the whole, the marginal improvement of steel fundamentals after the festival is expected to be strong, the center of gravity of steel prices may gradually rise, and the profits of steel mills are expected to gradually recover.
the infrastructure sector performed strongly
When it comes to steady growth, investors are most likely to think of the traditional infrastructure field. Corresponding to the disk, the traditional infrastructure sector has undoubtedly become the most powerful variety of A-Shares at the end of the year and the beginning of the year.
Divided by Shenwan level, since December 2021, the overall growth of the two major industries of building decoration and building materials has reached 10.98% and 8.49% respectively, ranking the top two in all industries, and the larger market has achieved very obvious excess returns.

Zheshang Securities Co.Ltd(601878) believes that the stable growth chain represented by real estate, construction and banks has low valuations, stock prices and fund positions. Benefiting from the force of stable growth, the fundamentals have ushered in marginal improvement and have comparative advantages.
Compared with the continuous strength of the traditional infrastructure sector, the recent stock price performance of new infrastructure directions such as green economy and high-end manufacturing is slightly hesitant, which may be related to the relative position of the sector valuation. However, with the gradual implementation of the steady growth policy, the new infrastructure sector has also begun to be sought after with funds in the near future.
Yesterday, the green power sector rebounded sharply, and the share price of the leading Power Construction Corporation Of China Ltd(Powerchina Ltd)(601669) with a market value of 100 billion rose by the limit; The concept of digital economy rose again, China Greatwall Technology Group Co.Ltd(000066) and others increased by more than 2%.

From this point of view, the "old infrastructure" sector continues to make efforts, the "new infrastructure" sector has followed up, and the A-share market funds have quietly reached a consensus on the main line of steady growth.
Low valuation plus policy support makes traditional infrastructure sectors such as building materials and housing construction regarded as the "direction with the least resistance" by funds. However, with the valuation repair in the past period of time, the follow-up of the main line of steady growth needs to be further observed.
digital economy is expected to continue to develop
China International Capital Corporation Limited(601995) the macro team recently released several research reports to continuously focus on the main line of stable growth. In its view, due to the structural changes in China's economic momentum, the starting point of steady growth will also switch.

In Zhang Wenlang's view, investment and related economic activities in the field of scientific and technological innovation will become the most important driving force for China's development in the future. The starting point of steady growth will change from "mainly relying on infrastructure real estate" to a diversified model of "infrastructure + real estate + innovation". In this context, green economy, digital economy and manufacturing upgrading may become an important starting point for stable growth in the future.
Wu Kaida, chief strategist at deppon securities, stressed that the steady growth performance of digital economy is not weaker than that of traditional infrastructure.
