The national standing committee will deploy measures to promote consumption policies, and the steady growth of real estate is expected to underpin the economy. Last week, the national standing committee meeting mentioned “expanding consumption in key areas” and “encouraging large consumption such as automobiles and household appliances”, and decided to further strengthen policy support such as export tax rebate. The meeting played a directional role in the implementation of follow-up local policies. Last week, Beijing also launched a new round of policies to promote green energy-saving consumption, encouraging the purchase of green energy-saving products and promoting consumption upgrading in the form of issuing green energy-saving consumption vouchers. Dishwashers, projectors, water purifiers, etc. appear in this round of subsidies, and some new categories of household appliances will benefit.

From the perspective of terminal data, the growth rate of sales and sales volume of large household appliances air conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines and range hoods in March was negative year-on-year, and the Wuxi Online Offline Communication Information Technology Co.Ltd(300959) average prices of the four categories increased to varying degrees compared with the same period last year. From the weekly data, the overall sales volume of w15 (4.4-4.9) ice and air washing fell year-on-year, and the average price of white electricity showed a steady downward trend as a whole.
