Investment advice
This week, the overall food and beverage sector continued its downward trend. From the monthly data, the industry has not changed substantially, and the upstream cost pressure has shown signs of easing. At the current time point, it is recommended to select stocks with reasonable valuation and their own growth attributes. On the sector side, it is still recommended to focus on the more high-end Baijiu, and change the space with time, and pay attention to the secondary high-end market. In terms of popular products, it is preferred to select the beer sector with downward cost determination within the year or with relatively better current competition pattern and smoother pressure transmission, followed by dairy products. The price of raw milk in the upstream of dairy products has been flat with the same period last year. On the basis of good demand and early price increase, the performance is expected to accelerate the release. It is recommended to pay active attention. To sum up, we give the industry a “optimistic” investment rating and continue to recommend Wuliangye Yibin Co.Ltd(000858) (000858), Jiangsu King’S Luck Brewery Joint-Stock Co.Ltd(603369) (603369), Angel Yeast Co.Ltd(600298) (600298), Chongqing Brewery Co.Ltd(600132) (600132) and Inner Mongolia Yili Industrial Group Co.Ltd(600887) (600887).
