At the policy briefing, encourage the implementation of furniture and home decoration subsidies to the countryside, which may stimulate rural home decoration consumption in the future.

The recovery of policy and the reduction of reserve requirements will usher in the repair of the real estate supply and demand end and the downstream household industry.

On the same day, the central bank announced that it would cut the deposit reserve ratio of financial institutions by 0.5 percentage points on December 15, releasing about 1.2 trillion yuan of long-term funds. We believe that the current RRR reduction will help reduce the social comprehensive financing cost, alleviate the pressure of real estate on financial risks, play a positive role in repairing the liquidity of the real estate industry and stimulating the supply and demand side, and also drive the repair of the downstream real estate industry.
In the post cycle era of real estate, the concentration of the household industry is expected to further improve and the leading enterprises will benefit.

At the same time, under the policy promotion and market education, the penetration rate of fine decoration is improved.
