Industry perspective:
This week, cement prices in many places started an upward offensive, and steady growth is still the main investment logic of the industry. 1) Pay attention to investment opportunities of concrete water reducing agent and waterproof. Leading companies will benefit from the increase in revenue brought by the improvement of industry concentration and channel advantages. 2) The cement sector is expected to have band theme opportunities in the first quarter. This week, the cement demand in most parts of the country gradually started, and the clinker price in the Yangtze River Delta ushered in the fourth round of rise. 3) New infrastructure and municipal projects contribute new momentum. The new infrastructure construction and double carbon policy will bring the demand increment of building materials products, mainly reflected in photovoltaic glass and wind power yarn. At the same time, the demand for municipal construction such as old transformation and affordable housing has increased significantly, and the head enterprises with strong channel advantages benefit the most. Recently, the price of photovoltaic glass has stabilized and rebounded, and the leading companies and new high-quality enterprises deserve attention. Under the optimistic scenario of 2025, the global PV installed capacity will reach 330gw / year, and the CAGR will be 20.48%; The cost reduction and efficiency increase of photovoltaic modules will bring new incremental space to the demand for photovoltaic glass. Under the optimistic scenario of 2025, the growth rate of photovoltaic glass demand is expected to exceed 30%. We expect that from 2022 to 2023, the supply side will enter the stage of price competition, and enterprises will compete more in cost. The duopoly enterprises Xinyi solar energy and Flat Glass Group Co.Ltd(601865) have outstanding comprehensive advantages, and the concentration of duopoly may be further improved; Qibin, CSG and other new entrants have the advantage of late development and obtain development opportunities in the photovoltaic glass industry.
