Investment strategy and portfolio. Affected by the negative factors such as the significant advance loss of thermal power performance, the continuous high coal price and the fact that the new installed capacity of some enterprises was less than expected, the power sector corrected with the overall market in the first quarter. We believe that the above negative factors have been reflected in the current stock price, and the concerns about the dual carbon target and scenery growth have been eliminated. The development logic of the industry has not changed, and the short-term negative news has been basically digested.
