Since the outbreak of covid-19 epidemic, epidemic prevention policies, travel restrictions and repeated epidemics have had a serious impact on the consumption scenes of tourism, catering, hotels, food, drinks and other industries. At present, the epidemic situation is expected to continue to improve. The tourism development plan of the 14th five year plan also looks forward to the liberalization of entry and exit when the epidemic situation allows. The Spring Festival + Winter Olympic Games effectively boost market sentiment. We believe that with the logical support of strong policy support + the improvement of the epidemic situation, the starting point of consumption recovery is coming, and the boom is expected to continue to rise. Looking ahead, how can the layout and recovery of post epidemic investment be interpreted?

Core view

With the support of performance, the value and price of high-end Baijiu took the lead. The valuation and share price rose from February 2020 to February 2021. 2) The second round: in the middle of 2020, with the weakening of the epidemic disturbance, the national sub high-end liquor enterprises took the lead in recovering, and the recovery of performance promoted the second round of valuation and share price rise. The second round of market rose from the middle of 2020 to the middle of 2021; 3) third round: since 2021, with the weakening of epidemic situation, the banquet and gathering demand is warming up, and the low base effect is superimposed.

The premium Baijiu can enjoy the growth of the volume price of the Baijiu price after the price rise of the high-end liquor. 2) macroeconomic stability and good help Baijiu sector. Baijiu is a luxury product, so Baijiu is often used for banquets and gifts. When the macroeconomic situation is better, the growth of business and social needs is superimposed on the growth of residents' income. The consumption level of Baijiu industry has also increased. China's economy is expected to increase steadily in 2022, and the economy is expected to continue to improve under the policy of steady growth, and Baijiu demand is expected to be boosted. 3) The disturbance of the epidemic is expected to dissipate, and the demand for banquets may usher in an outbreak.
