investment strategy
In terms of construction machinery, the sales volume of excavators in November was about 20400 units, a year-on-year decrease of 36.6%, of which the decline of sales volume in China expanded to – 51.4%, and the export continued the high growth trend. From January to November 2021, the sales volume of excavators was 318700 units, with a year-on-year increase of 7.66%, slightly lower than the annual growth expectation of 10%. According to the data of major downstream application industries in November, the cumulative growth rate of infrastructure and real estate investment maintained a downward trend, the cumulative year-on-year decline of infrastructure investment expanded to 0.17%, and the cumulative year-on-year growth rate of real estate development investment narrowed to 6%. In terms of policy, with the release of the energy consumption dual control plan by the national development and Reform Commission, a new round of production restriction measures are deployed in many places across the country, including setting the upper limit of output, staggered peak production, power restriction, requiring shutdown and maintenance, etc. We expect a new round of price adjustment in Q1 industry in 2022 to cope with the cost rise caused by production restriction. Under this expectation, it is suggested to focus on leading enterprises with strong cost transfer ability in the industry, such as leading Sany Heavy Industry Co.Ltd(600031) (600031), Shaanxi Construction Machinery Co.Ltd(600984) (600984) of construction machinery and Jiangsu Hengli Hydraulic Co.Ltd(601100) (601100) of core parts manufacturers.
In terms of industry Siasun Robot&Automation Co.Ltd(300024) , we believe that the prosperity of the industry Siasun Robot&Automation Co.Ltd(300024) will continue to benefit from the growth of fixed asset investment in manufacturing in 2021. At present, China is in an important stage of manufacturing capacity transformation from low-end to high-end. With the gradual decline of China’s demographic dividend and the continuous downward exploration of industrial Siasun Robot&Automation Co.Ltd(300024) prices, the price scissors difference between the two has been significantly reduced, Machine replacement will become an important trend of manufacturing transformation in the future. It is recommended to pay attention to Siasun Robot&Automation Co.Ltd(300024) leading industrial enterprises Guangdong Topstar Technology Co.Ltd(300607) (300607), Estun Automation Co.Ltd(002747) (002747), and domestic reducer faucets Leader Harmonious Drive Systems Co.Ltd(688017) (688017).
