Investment view

We believe that the dynamic clearing of this round of epidemic is expected to accelerate, and consumption is expected to accelerate the recovery, mainly for the following reasons: 1) on April 13 this week, the State Council held a national standing committee meeting, at which policies and measures to promote consumption were clearly deployed to help stabilize the economic fundamentals and ensure the improvement of people’s lives. Among them, it is clearly stated that we should pay close attention to the implementation of the relief policies for special hardship industries such as catering, retail, tourism, civil aviation, highway, waterway and railway transportation, and encourage local governments to increase assistance and stabilize more subjects of the consumer service market. Ensure the supply and price of basic consumer goods and ensure smooth logistics. We believe that the government is ready for the May Day golden week. 2) Since April, 15 cities in Dalian, Lanzhou, Suzhou, Nanjing and Shanghai Lingang Holdings Co.Ltd(600848) region have loosened the house purchase policy, involving purchase restriction, loan restriction, sale restriction, provident fund loan, house loan interest rate, etc. We believe that the deregulation of the house purchase policy is conducive to promoting consumption, ensuring the improvement of people’s livelihood and accelerating the recovery of consumption. 3) Since April 7, there have been more than 20000 new asymptomatic infections in Shanghai. From April 15 to 16, the number of new asymptomatic infections in Shanghai was less than 20000; The RO value of Shanghai epidemic spread index decreased from the initial 2.7 to 1.23 on April 16. We believe that this round of Shanghai epidemic is very close to being controlled, and the inflection point is expected to accelerate.

Considering the post epidemic era and the recovery of consumption, we believe that the food and beverage sector recommends the following four main lines:

1) the current epidemic situation in the Shanghai area is the worst hit area. We recommend relatively small stocks with larger early impact and Shanghai area influence.
