Investment advice
This week, the mood of the food and beverage sector recovered slightly, but the overall sector is still weak due to the impact of the epidemic. Since the beginning of the year, the sector has continued to be affected by northward capital outflow, upward pressure on costs and disturbance of the epidemic, and the overall performance of the sector has been poor. However, as the sector continues to decline, we should also pay attention to that some leading valuations in high-quality segments have long-term allocation prices. On the sector side, we still recommend that we must focus on the more high-end Baijiu, and change the space with time, and pay attention to the secondary high-end of the continuous expansion of the market. In terms of popular products, it is still recommended to optimize the dairy industry with downward cost determination during the year and the beer sector with relatively better competition pattern and smoother pressure transmission. The beer sector will continue to benefit from the gradual recovery of consumption scenes after the epidemic, with the positive impact of price increase and high-end products, and high growth is expected. To sum up, we temporarily give the industry a "neutral" investment rating and recommend Wuliangye Yibin Co.Ltd(000858) ( Wuliangye Yibin Co.Ltd(000858) ), Jiangsu King'S Luck Brewery Joint-Stock Co.Ltd(603369) ( Jiangsu King'S Luck Brewery Joint-Stock Co.Ltd(603369) ), Chongqing Fuling Zhacai Group Co.Ltd(002507) ( Chongqing Fuling Zhacai Group Co.Ltd(002507) ), Chongqing Brewery Co.Ltd(600132) ( Chongqing Brewery Co.Ltd(600132) ) and Inner Mongolia Yili Industrial Group Co.Ltd(600887) ( Inner Mongolia Yili Industrial Group Co.Ltd(600887) ).
