Outlook for the auto market in December: the recent epidemic has spread around the world twice, but the dark moment of auto chip supply has passed, and the chip supply is gradually improving. With the alleviation of the chip problem, the automobile supply has improved, and the backlog of market demand has been partially released. December is the winter peak sales period of China's passenger car market. The promotion at the end of the year and the early release of some car purchase demand before the Spring Festival are expected to promote the continuous recovery of the car market. We expect that the car production and sales volume in December will continue to increase month on month compared with November, and the year-on-year growth rate is expected to be positive.
Investment suggestion: from 21q4 onwards, with the gradual easing of chip shortage and the improvement of supply side, the automotive industry is expected to enter the inventory adding cycle. It is suggested that the vehicle sector pay attention to the abundant orders on hand. With the easing of "core shortage", it has strong production and sales growth elasticity, and the medium and long-term competitiveness is continuously strengthened [ Great Wall Motor Company Limited(601633) , Guangzhou Automobile Group Co.Ltd(601238) , Geely Automobile, Chongqing Changan Automobile Company Limited(000625) , Saic Motor Corporation Limited(600104) ], And the head enterprise of new forces in car making [Xiaopeng automobile, ideal automobile, Weilai]. In addition, in the "active inventory" stage, the demand for parts and components of vehicle enterprises is expected to rebound. At the same time, the price of raw materials and sea freight have stabilized at the high level of 21q4 or even partially dropped. We believe that the expectation of parts and components sector at the current time point is poor and there is more room for performance repair. It is suggested to pay attention to the parts sector: (1) Q3 performance hit the bottom, Q4 is expected to reverse upward, and [ Jiangsu Changshu Automotive Trim Group Co.Ltd(603035) , Ningbo Joyson Electronic Corp(600699) , Zhejiang Yinlun Machinery Co.Ltd(002126) , Jiangsu Pacific Precision Forging Co.Ltd(300258) ] with large performance flexibility; (2) There are many layouts in the automotive electronics field, benefiting from the improvement of automotive chip supply, and the shipment volume is expected to increase [ Huayu Automotive Systems Company Limited(600741) , Changzhou Xingyu Automotive Lighting Systems Co.Ltd(601799) , Keboda Technology Co.Ltd(603786) , Foryou Corporation(002906) , Huizhou Desay Sv Automotive Co.Ltd(002920) ]; (3) Benefiting from the high prosperity of new energy vehicles [ Contemporary Amperex Technology Co.Limited(300750) (coverage of new power generation group), Ningbo Tuopu Group Co.Ltd(601689) , Shinry Technologies Co.Ltd(300745) , Zhuhai Enpower Electric Co.Ltd(300681) , Jing-Jin Electric Technologies Co.Ltd(688280) , Shenzhen Inovance Technology Co.Ltd(300124) (coverage of new power generation group), Mianyang Fulin Precision Co.Ltd(300432) , Zhejiang Yinlun Machinery Co.Ltd(002126) ], etc.
Risk tip: the prosperity of the industry is declining, the effect of policy implementation is less than expected, and the shortage of chips is more than expected.
