Investment proposal and investment object
In March, the electric vehicle sales data of some enterprises were bright, the new forces significantly adjusted month on month, the sales of traditional car enterprises kept up, and the sales of new energy vehicles of many enterprises exceeded 10000 in March, showing a good trend. The impact of the price rise of new energy vehicles and the epidemic is expected to be reflected from May to June. However, under the negative effect of the continuous rise in the oil price of fuel vehicles and the continuous narrowing of the preferential range, it is expected that the automobile consumption will turn to electric vehicles. The Byd Company Limited(002594) announcement to stop the production of fuel vehicles is the strongest signal. We are optimistic that the sales of new energy vehicles will continue to pick up in the second half of the year.
We insist that the price rise will not affect the demand in the medium and long term, and electric vehicles have become a must. The market demand for new energy vehicles began to release steadily without relying on the strong promotion of policies. The continuous upgrading of models and consumers’ acceptance of electrification are the strongest driving forces. Superimposed with the optimization and adjustment of policies, the new energy vehicle market is healthier.
In terms of midstream materials, the market has great concerns about demand, but under the current oversold or undervalued value of the sector as a whole, we believe that the sales volume of new energy vehicles in the second half of the year, whether 5 million or 6 million, will usher in a stage of continuous improvement month on month, which will bring systematic opportunities for the sector, but the deductive logic will vary under different sales volumes. At present, the sector still prefers diaphragm, ternary positive and negative links.
In conclusion, it is suggested to pay attention to Contemporary Amperex Technology Co.Limited(300750) ( Contemporary Amperex Technology Co.Limited(300750) , buy) and Guangzhou Great Power Energy&Technology Co.Ltd(300438) ( Guangzhou Great Power Energy&Technology Co.Ltd(300438) , buy) in the battery link; Midstream materials suggest to pay attention to Beijing Easpring Material Technology Co.Ltd(300073) ( Beijing Easpring Material Technology Co.Ltd(300073) , buy), Ningbo Ronbay New Energy Technology Co.Ltd(688005) ( Ningbo Ronbay New Energy Technology Co.Ltd(688005) , not rated), Zhejiang Huayou Cobalt Co.Ltd(603799) ( Zhejiang Huayou Cobalt Co.Ltd(603799) , buy), Yunnan Energy New Material Co.Ltd(002812) ( Yunnan Energy New Material Co.Ltd(002812) , not rated).
Risk tips
Subsidies have declined, and the sales of new energy vehicles are lower than expected; Upstream raw material price fluctuation risk.
