prices hit a record high, and this strategic resource inventory is still at a record low
According to the China Rare Earth Industry Association, the rare earth price index on February 15, 2022 was 426.8, up 6.2 points from the 14th, reaching a record high.
There is strong demand in emerging fields such as new energy vehicles, wind power, industrial motors and variable frequency air conditioning. Orders of large magnetic material enterprises have increased significantly and are generally full. The supply increment is limited, the contradiction between supply and demand is prominent, and the price rise expectation of the industrial chain is strong, showing that the downstream inventory is not high and the upstream is reluctant to sell. The price rise trend has been formed and is difficult to reverse. According to the statistics of Baichuan Yingfu, on February 11, the inventory of praseodymium and neodymium oxide was 3266 tons, equivalent to two weeks of inventory. The inventory data disclosed by the listed companies of major magnetic materials was also at a low level. Huaan Securities Co.Ltd(600909) analysis points out that on the supply side, China, as a strategic resource, the supply of rare earth is strictly controlled by national indicators; Globally, the production capacity of the United States has peaked, and the closure of the Myanmar epidemic has a great impact on China's import of rare earths. It is difficult to increase when the epidemic is not clear. On the demand side, low-carbon demand for new energy vehicles, industrial energy-saving motors and wind power generation has been fully opened, and the demand has increased rapidly. The supply and demand pattern was reshaped, and the tight balance promoted the rare earth price to maintain a high level.

Earth-Panda Advanced Magnetic Material Co.Ltd(688077) the overall capacity of sintered NdFeB is 6000 T / A, and it is expected to reach 8000-10000 T / a by the end of 2022.
Internet giants continue to enter the game, and such devices are expected to become the hardware interface between the real world and the meta universe
Tencent launched a new business - XR (extended reality) business, and recently launched live water recruitment (i.e. internal cross departmental job transfer). The business focuses on the layout of the XR ecology of the whole link, including XR devices on the hardware side, perceptual interaction technology on the software side, and content and developer ecology on the content and industry side.
According to public data, extended reality (XR) refers to a real and virtual combination of human-computer interaction environment generated by computer technology and wearable devices, including augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), hybrid reality (MR) and other forms. Metauniverse has high requirements for immersive and realistic experience. The existing PC and mobile phone devices can not perfectly restore the sensory experience of the real world, while XR head display devices with 3D display, large field of view angle and intuitive somatosensory interaction are expected to become the hardware interface between the real world and metauniverse. Western Securities Co.Ltd(002673) the analysis points out that in the medium term, if considering the continuous integration of VR and AR and the deepening of realistic interaction technologies such as gesture recognition, the use scenario is expected to expand to office and other fields. In terms of product application, XR devices are expected to partially replace the use of tablets / computers, and the global annual shipment is expected to reach more than 100 million units; Further, with technological progress, if XR can achieve enough lightness, long endurance and good interactive experience, XR devices will replace smartphones, with an annual shipment of more than 1 billion units.

Recently, the national development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of industry and information technology and other four departments recently jointly issued the implementation guide for energy conservation and carbon reduction transformation and upgrading in key areas of high energy consuming industries (2022 version), which defined the work direction and objectives of energy conservation and carbon reduction transformation in 17 industries such as cement, flat glass and. It is mentioned that by 2025, the proportion of clinker production capacity above the benchmark level of energy efficiency in the cement industry will reach 30%, and the clinker production capacity below the benchmark level of energy efficiency will be basically cleared. The effect of energy conservation and carbon reduction in the industry is remarkable, and the ability of green and low-carbon development will be greatly enhanced. Soochow Securities Co.Ltd(601555) it is estimated that the supply capacity of the industry will decrease by 0.1% year-on-year after eliminating the peak staggering in 2022. With the support of stable investment on demand, the cement boom can still maintain a high level, and the peak season has a certain price elasticity. The dividend yield of 5 ~ 9% in 2021 makes the current price earnings ratio of 6 ~ 7 times have room for repair.

under the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the supply of upstream resources has raised concerns, the inventory has been reduced by half, and the price is close to the high point since 2008
Since 2022, the global aluminum price has continued to rise. Aluminum prices hit $3333 a tonne last week, close to the record high of $3381 hit in July 2008.
At the supply side, electrolytic aluminum production is limited. Since the second half of 2021, the power cost in Europe has soared, and many zinc and aluminum smelting enterprises have shut down some production capacity due to high power cost. The inventory of LME registered aluminum warehouse is 86895 tons, which has been reduced by more than half since March last year. Recently, the conflict between Russia and Ukraine may mean that western countries will impose sanctions on Russian companies such as Rusal, which accounts for about 5% of the global aluminum supply. Some metal traders said that Russia faces the risk of sanctions and people are trying to hoard aluminum and nickel. Citigroup raised the aluminum price in 2022. LME spot aluminum price will soar to US $3400 / ton in the next 0-3 months and stabilize at US $3000-3100 / ton in the next 6-12 months. Everbright Securities Company Limited(601788) the analysis points out that in the short term, the suspension of European aluminum enterprises and the disturbance of China's Baise epidemic will continue to affect the global electrolytic aluminum supply. In the long run, the red line of China's electrolytic aluminum production capacity will limit the long-term supply of the industry. Under the background of global low inventory, the disturbance of supply outside China will intensify, which will continue to promote the upward price of electrolytic aluminum.
