Key investment points: since May 2021, the price increase of raw materials has gradually slowed down. Taking copper as an example, the price increases of 2021q1 / Q2 are 12.2% / 4.3% respectively. The price of 21h2 is stable and the marginal improvement is gradually obvious; Aluminum and stainless steel prices have fallen significantly since Q4, with a cumulative decline of 10.0% / 14.8%. At the same time, due to the lack of shipping capacity caused by repeated epidemics, the shipping freight rate has increased significantly. At present, the overall shipping freight rate level is at a historical high. We expect that the subsequent stabilization and decline of raw material prices, the recovery of international capacity and the decline of freight rates will drive the improvement of costs with strong certainty. We sort out the following four main investment lines: 1) weak real estate related uncertainty is strong, and policy fluctuations bring game elasticity. Recommendations: Zhejiang Supor Co.Ltd(002032) (dealer system reform), Guangdong Xinbao Electrical Appliances Holdings Co.Ltd(002705) (Mofei brand + export of small kitchen appliances). 2) After the price of raw materials stabilizes and falls, the profitability of the sector is expected to continue to repair. Recommendations: Haier Smart Home Co.Ltd(600690) (Casati high-end brand + self profit improvement), Midea Group Co.Ltd(000333) (tob business value revaluation), Hisense Home Appliances Group Co.Ltd(000921) (central air conditioning faucet + thermal management business layout of combined meter, three electric acceleration new energy vehicles + undervalued value). 3) Product innovation has accelerated to create new demand, and new consumption remains high. Recommendations: Ecovacs Robotics Co.Ltd(603486) (Tianke brand explosion + export ODM), Zhejiang Entive Smart Kitchen Appliance Co.Ltd(300911) (quasi first-line leader of integrated stove), Marssenger Kitchenware Co.Ltd(300894) (leader of integrated stove industry + rapid development of e-commerce business), Chengdu Xgimi Technology Co.Ltd(688696) (intelligent micro investment + overseas market development), Shenzhen Breo Technology Co.Ltd(688793) (Portable Massage small electric tap + accelerated expansion of offline stores).
