Core view
Under the situation of Russia and Ukraine, the price of semiconductor rare gas soared. Under the current Russian Ukrainian war, the two major neon suppliers in Ukraine have suspended their operations. Their semiconductor neon Suppliers account for nearly 50% of the global supply, and the neon suppliers in Japan and China account for the vast majority of the remaining 50% of the world’s neon production. The above suppliers have signed contracts with their local manufacturers and are less likely to sell in large quantities to other regions. The available inventory and supply of rare gases in the semiconductor material industry are not enough to meet the current demand level, and the sector has pressure risk in the short term. If the Russia Ukraine incident is resolved, the semiconductor sector will usher in repair opportunities.
The carbon fiber boom continues, and there is huge room for import substitution. The price of carbon fiber this week is 186.8 yuan / kg and the gross profit is 57.51 yuan / kg. Both the price and gross profit are at a high level in the past 20 years. Under the guidance of the wind power market, the downstream demand of the carbon fiber industry has increased rapidly. In recent years, with Chinese enterprises gradually realizing their own technology R & D and upgrading, domestic carbon fiber has developed rapidly. After seizing the opportunity to catch up, industry leaders need to further expand their scale, reduce costs and carry out integrated construction to realize domestic substitution. It is suggested to pay attention to the enterprises such as Zhongfu Shenying (to be listed), Weihai Guangwei Composites Co.Ltd(300699) , Jilin Carbon Valley, Jilin Chemical Fibre Co.Ltd(000420) , Sinofibers Technology Co.Ltd(300777) , Hengshen Co., Ltd.
