Stamping parts: benefiting from the recovery of the industry and the steady development of new energy customers.
Since the fourth quarter of 2021, the degree of core shortage has been gradually alleviated, and the industry has entered the recovery stage. With the gradual improvement, the industry will enter the inventory adding stage. At that time, auto parts enterprises will benefit significantly.
