Retail industry investment strategy:
After the Spring Festival, the market's expectations for the retail sector gradually returned to calm. Although individual stocks still fluctuated repeatedly, the overall retail trend was weaker than before the Spring Festival. On the one hand, the Spring Festival data did not have bright good news frequently. On the other hand, the rise of cyclical stocks also attracted some funds. The gold and jewelry sector is still a good bright spot in the sub sector of the industry. The fluctuation of the surrounding situation leads to a strong trend of gold price. We believe that multiple factors still support the follow-up market of gold and jewelry, and suggest that investors can still bargain hunting layout. The negative news of reducing catering rates on Friday led to the diving of meituan's share price, mainly due to the market's concern that meituan's take out business income and profit may be further under pressure when the social security policy has not been implemented. However, in view of the fact that meituan's takeout business has only maintained a low profit state, and the scope and extent of rate reduction still need to be further observed, we suggest investors treat the Internet industry rationally. Suggestions for next week: Shanghai Bailian Group Co.Ltd(600827) , Rainbow Digital Commercial Co.Ltd(002419) , Lao Feng Xiang Co.Ltd(600612) , Guangdong Chj Industry Co.Ltd(002345) , Vats Liquor Chain Store Management Joint Stock Co.Ltd(300755) , JD.
Risk analysis:
The growth rate of residents' consumption demand did not meet expectations, the post real estate cycle affected the income growth of some sub industries, and the impact of channel reform on the existing business model was higher than expected.
