These enterprises have no demand for financing expansion. It is a good choice to buy back shares with their own cash to protect shareholders' rights and interests.

Chen Li said that from the perspective of the sector, the first one with better performance in 2021 is new energy. As the main track strongly supported by policies, performance growth is due. Then there are commodity and cycle sectors, especially mineral and raw material enterprises in the upstream of new energy. Then, the pharmaceutical related industries will be stimulated by the epidemic, and the large-scale procurement of reagent kits will have a significant performance boost.
Turning to the performance of listed companies this year, Chen Li said that China's GDP growth target this year is 5.5%, and steady growth has become an important theme. At present, in terms of policy, new energy fields such as Fengguang storage are the main direction of investment driven by provinces and cities, and the performance of new energy construction and operation enterprises is expected to benefit directly. At the same time, due to the epidemic last year, a large number of overseas enterprises stopped production. This year, with the slowdown of the epidemic and resumption of work, this part of production capacity will be released. Enterprises with better export performance last year will have greater performance pressure this year.
