Trading stagflation. The market trading stagflation environment needs to constantly switch between inflation and recession. Inflation should buy upstream resources and recession should buy mandatory consumption. What can give consideration to both is chemical fertilizer, especially phosphorus fertilizer and potassium fertilizer. Phosphate fertilizer and potassium fertilizer have strong resource attributes at the mining end, while the demand end is closely related to grain prices, both offensive and defensive. It is suggested to pay attention to Yunnan Yuntianhua Co.Ltd(600096) , Hubei Yihua Chemical Industry Co.Ltd(000422) , Hubei Xingfa Chemicals Group Co.Ltd(600141) , and Qinghai Salt Lake Industry Co.Ltd(000792) , Asia-Potash International Investment (Guangzhou) Co.Ltd(000893) , Qingdao East Steel Tower Stock Co.Ltd(002545) .
Electricity price arbitrage: oil and gas prices have risen sharply, and overseas electricity prices have continued to rise to 2-3 yuan / kWh. In contrast, the electricity price of enterprises in eastern China is 6-8 gross / kWh, while the self generation cost of low-cost coal in Western China is only 1-2 gross / kWh. We pay attention to the arbitrage opportunity of electricity price difference of high power consumption products per unit output value. According to our screening, the chemicals with high to low power consumption per unit output value are calcium carbide, yellow phosphorus, caustic soda, industrial silicon, synthetic ammonia, etc. It is suggested to pay attention to the enterprises with self owned coal, self owned power plants and high power consumption chemicals in the west, Guanghui Energy Co.Ltd(600256) , Hoshine Silicon Industry Co.Ltd(603260) , Hubei Yihua Chemical Industry Co.Ltd(000422) , Xinjiang Zhongtai Chenical Co.Ltd(002092) , Xinjiang Tianye Co.Ltd(600075) , etc.
Repricing resources is a directional choice. Take 2020 as the starting point of the first year. Looking forward to the next 5-10 years, we need to make a directional judgment: the advantages of the resource side will be highlighted and amplified. With the combined restrictions of carbon neutralization, dual control of energy consumption and various supply side control measures of production capacity indicators, we will see that some enterprises with leading resource endowment layout, especially local state-owned enterprises, will show stronger competitive advantages in traditional industries such as coal chemical industry, salt chemical industry and phosphorus chemical industry, or industries with gradually resource attribute of industrial silicon and calcium carbide. The state-owned enterprises relying on better resource endowment are also expected to glow with stronger vitality in the gradual deepening of the reform of state-owned enterprises in recent years.
In terms of investment suggestions, we divide traditional chemical cycle companies into two categories, focusing on upstream resource-based companies and midstream processing companies. In H1 of 2022, we believe that the profits of the industry will be more inclined to the upstream, so we recommend resource advantage companies, including 1) agrochemical resource products companies represented by phosphate fertilizer and potassium fertilizer, Yunnan Yuntianhua Co.Ltd(600096) , Hubei Yihua Chemical Industry Co.Ltd(000422) , Hubei Xingfa Chemicals Group Co.Ltd(600141) , Asia-Potash International Investment (Guangzhou) Co.Ltd(000893) , etc; 2) Integrated companies in high power consumption industries represented by calcium carbide, caustic soda, BDO, industrial silicon and yellow phosphorus, Xinjiang Zhongtai Chenical Co.Ltd(002092) , Xinjiang Tianye Co.Ltd(600075) , Hoshine Silicon Industry Co.Ltd(603260) , Yunnan Yuntianhua Co.Ltd(600096) , etc; 3) Companies enjoying low-cost resource arbitrage in the West and companies with their own power plants, Xinjiang Zhongtai Chenical Co.Ltd(002092) , Guanghui Energy Co.Ltd(600256) , Hoshine Silicon Industry Co.Ltd(603260) , Hubei Yihua Chemical Industry Co.Ltd(000422) , etc.
Phosphorus chemical industry has returned to the cost performance range. 1) Due to the supply of key raw materials, Bayer glyphosate production line is expected to be repaired for about three months, which is expected to raise the price of glyphosate. 2) The price of phosphate fertilizer is still very strong in the off-season, and we are expected to see the price rise again when the peak spring farming season comes. 3) After the boom of China’s export of chemical fertilizer and the liberalization of the price of chemical fertilizer in the international market, it is expected that the price gap of chemical fertilizer will be extended. After three months of adjustment, phosphorus chemical industry has returned to the range of cost performance. We strongly recommend that you pay attention to the companies of phosphorus chemical industry, Yunnan Yuntianhua Co.Ltd(600096) , Hubei Xingfa Chemicals Group Co.Ltd(600141) , Hubei Yihua Chemical Industry Co.Ltd(000422) , etc.
