Retail industry investment strategy:
The recovery process of the industry will be affected by the repeated epidemic in the short term. In the past week, patients with covid-19 epidemic have emerged in Shenzhen, Shanghai and other places. We estimate that there will still be great pressure on offline sales in March. The first quarter performance of both optional and mandatory products will be negatively affected. In addition, the overseas market has fluctuated greatly recently, and the decline of the Internet e-commerce sector has accelerated. We suggest investors to wait and see, supplemented by operation. At present, the overseas situation is not clear, which may drag down the valuation repair progress of Hong Kong stocks and US stocks. On the whole, we are still optimistic about the gold jewelry sector. Since the beginning of the year, the gold price has increased by nearly 5%. The sinking of the sales channel of gold jewelry will also be conducive to the performance growth of gold jewelry companies. We expect that the gold jewelry sub industry in the first quarter of 2022 will be a sub sector with high prosperity in the retail channel. It is suggested that investors can still configure on bargain hunting. Suggestions for next week: Shanghai Bailian Group Co.Ltd(600827) , Rainbow Digital Commercial Co.Ltd(002419) , Lao Feng Xiang Co.Ltd(600612) , Guangdong Chj Industry Co.Ltd(002345) , Vats Liquor Chain Store Management Joint Stock Co.Ltd(300755) , JD.
Risk analysis:
The growth rate of residents' consumption demand did not meet expectations, the post real estate cycle affected the income growth of some sub industries, and the impact of channel reform on the existing business model was higher than expected
