Key sub industry views

(1) Many factors affect the prosperity of the sub industry next year. Under the expected increase of cultivated land area, the maintenance of grain prices at a high level, China's orderly supply and the rise of prices in the fourth quarter, the overall profitability of the pesticide industry is expected to improve next year, with emphasis on Jiangsu Yangnong Chemical Co.Ltd(600486) , Shandong Weifang Rainbow Chemical Co.Ltd(301035) , Anhui Guangxin Agrochemical Co.Ltd(603599) , Limin Group Co.Ltd(002734) ; the prosperity of the tire industry has bottomed out, and the new energy field brings development opportunities, so it is recommended to pay attention to it Sailun Group Co.Ltd(601058)Qingdao Sentury Tire Co.Ltd(002984) 。 The boom of viscose industry is expected to reverse, and Tangshan Sanyou Chemical Industries Co.Ltd(600409) is recommended. (2) The demand economy is relatively weak, and the fields of semiconductor materials, military materials and other new materials are independently controllable in the medium and long term; the chemical synthesis platform company Valiant Co.Ltd(002643) and China's private gas leading enterprise Suzhou Jinhong Gas Co.Ltd(688106) are mainly recommended. (3) the downstream demand is stable, and great attention is paid to the subdivided fields such as photovoltaic, wind power, new energy and sugar substitutes; the new energy functional material leader Shenzhen Capchem Technology.Ltd(300037) , global sweetener leader Anhui Jinhe Industrial Co.Ltd(002597) . (4) The leader is expanding vertically and horizontally, the integration advantage is prominent, and the profit center is expected to rise; it is recommended that Wanhua Chemical Group Co.Ltd(600309) , Shandong Hualu-Hengsheng Chemical Co.Ltd(600426) , Zhejiang Nhu Company Ltd(002001) .
