Investment strategy this week
Cement sector: at present, the current round of epidemic is still in multi-point outbreak, and the transmission range is gradually expanding. Although the data of national cement shipment rate and storage capacity ratio continue to improve, it is not ruled out that the epidemic will affect the construction of downstream customers and have a great impact on the shipment of cement enterprises in the future. On the demand side, the main data of real estate investment, sales, new construction and construction have significantly exceeded market expectations, and the growth rate of infrastructure investment has reached 8.1%, far exceeding the average level since 2018 (except for the high base factor in the first half of last year), which is conducive to supporting the demand for cement. On the cost side, recently, with the continuous promotion of various measures to stabilize and increase production, the national coal output has remained at a high level. Since the middle and late February, the national daily coal output has remained above 12 million tons, with a year-on-year increase of more than 10%. The coal output has increased, stabilized the coal price and reduced the cement cost. It is suggested to pay attention to Anhui Conch Cement Company Limited(600585) , Huaxin Cement Co.Ltd(600801) .

Glass: this week, China’s float glass market is weak and downward, and prices in most regions have been reduced by different ranges. In the northern region, the delivery of some manufacturers is limited, and the local price decline is obvious. Under the impact of the supply of goods in North China and Northeast China, the prices in the southern region fell. On the whole, the new orders of downstream processing plants are insufficient, the lack of orders is still prominent, the wait-and-see in the middle and lower reaches is strong, and the short-term market is expected to continue the weak pattern. Pay attention to Zhuzhou Kibing Group Co.Ltd(601636) etc.
