Core view of this week: in December 2021, the sales volume of heavy trucks was 53000, a year-on-year increase of – 52%. In 2021, the cumulative sales volume of the heavy truck industry reached 1.391 million, a year-on-year decrease of 14.1%, the first decline in nearly six years. In the second half of 2021, the sales volume of China’s heavy truck market decreased significantly year-on-year due to the switching of national six emission standards, high industrial inventory and other factors; However, the concentration of leading enterprises increased. In 2021, the Cr5 share of heavy trucks reached 85.6%, 1.7pct higher than that in 2020. Among them, the market share of Faw Jiefang Group Co.Ltd(000800) and Sinotruk Jinan Truck Co.Ltd(000951) enterprises increased by 1.5 and 2.4pct respectively, and the Matthew effect further appeared. With the passage of time, the negative impact of the national six emission upgrading has been gradually eliminated, and the reasons for the base number in the same period have been superimposed. We judge that the worst time of the heavy truck industry has passed. We recommend three main lines:
(1) independent brand leaders with strong new product cycle: Great Wall Motor Company Limited(601633) , Byd Company Limited(002594) .
(2) parts enterprises closely related to the electric intelligent industrial chain with high growth certainty: Huizhou Desay Sv Automotive Co.Ltd(002920) , Guangdong Senssun Weighing Apparatus Group Ltd(002870) , Zhejiang Sanhua Intelligent Controls Co.Ltd(002050) , Changzhou Xingyu Automotive Lighting Systems Co.Ltd(601799) , Shandong Linglong Tyre Co.Ltd(601966) .
(3) heavy truck enterprises with increasing market share and expected to usher in a performance inflection point: Sinotruk Jinan Truck Co.Ltd(000951) .
