Industry dynamic analysis
The February social finance data released this week was lower than expected. The new social finance in February was 1.19 trillion, a decrease of 531.5 billion yuan over the same period last year, mainly due to the decrease of new RMB loans and the increase of off balance sheet financing year-on-year. The increase in social financing in February mainly came from government bonds and corporate bond financing, of which the net financing of government bonds was 272.2 billion yuan, an increase of 170.5 billion yuan year-on-year; The net financing of corporate bonds was 337.7 billion yuan, an increase of 202.1 billion yuan year-on-year. From January to February, China issued 877.5 billion yuan of new local government special bonds, accounting for more than 60% of the "early approval" quota. The issuance progress was significantly accelerated, which is expected to boost the growth of infrastructure investment.
According to the contents of the two sessions, steady growth continued to increase, and it was once again clear that infrastructure investment should be carried out moderately in advance. At the level of capital supply, fiscal expenditure was expanded, central transfer payment was increased, the issuance of special bonds was accelerated, and the policy support of the construction industry was still strong. At the industry level, the boom level of the construction industry increased significantly in February, and the market demand is expected to continue to release.

Industry investment perspective
In 2022, the construction industry is expected to usher in multiple development opportunities of fundamentals, policy driven and "construction +", and the industry is in the undervalued range, with prominent investment value.
The overall fundamentals of the construction industry are improving. In particular, the rapid growth of orders from central infrastructure enterprises and local infrastructure leaders will help improve performance. It will take the lead in benefiting from the release of infrastructure demand under the goal of stable growth. At the same time, it will actively layout new businesses, improve comprehensive strength and help valuation repair.
The policy is expected to become another driving force for the "spring agitation" of the industry in 2022. In the near future, the steady growth policy will continue to increase, the active fiscal policy should improve the efficiency, the local special debt can be launched within a certain period, the monetary policy should be flexible and appropriate, and the liquidity should be reasonable and abundant. In 2022, there are expectations of reducing reserve requirements and interest rates, and the loose monetary policy is conducive to the development of the industry. The "two new and one heavy" construction is expected to increase, and the infrastructure investment is moderately ahead of schedule, which is worth looking forward to.
The construction industry actively embraces the "new economy" and actively layout Shenzhen New Industries Biomedical Engineering Co.Ltd(300832) . BIPV, energy storage and carbon sequestration have become the key areas of layout of listed companies. Some companies Shenzhen New Industries Biomedical Engineering Co.Ltd(300832) have achieved initial results and are expected to continue to make efforts in the future to help improve the valuation level of companies and industries. Industry leaders and regional leaders will continue to cultivate traditional businesses, expand the whole industrial chain and extend upstream and downstream around traditional businesses, and fully benefit from the improvement of industry concentration. The release of future performance is sustainable.
On the whole, the construction industry has both "white horse" with good performance and extremely low valuation, and "dark horse" with layout of "building +" and standing at the market outlet. The overall trend of the industry is good, with fundamental support and policy catalysis. In addition, the "building +" helps to improve the valuation and is optimistic about the overall trend of the construction industry in 2022.
