Zhou Du’s core view:
Traditional retail: on Friday, December 24, the trend of the traditional retail sector was strong. We believe that it was mainly due to the negative external factors such as the epidemic situation and new business formats in the early stage. The traditional retail was under pressure, difficult to recover, and the sector oversold and rebounded. It is expected that with the arrival of new year’s day and Spring Festival and the release of demand, the performance and prosperity of traditional retail are expected to improve marginally.
