Key policies: on April 18, the people's Bank of China and the State Administration of foreign exchange issued the notice on doing a good job in epidemic prevention and control and financial services for economic and social development. The real estate sector required to increase support for high-quality real estate projects, implement all-round policies to broaden real estate credit, do not "one size fits all" for development loans, and maintain the stable and orderly delivery of real estate development loans. Since March, the relaxation of real estate has been further strengthened, from the previous reduction of interest rates and relaxation of provident fund to the relaxation of purchase and sales restrictions. The recent policy has been further expanded from the third and fourth tier to the second tier. This week, Suzhou, Yinchuan, Yancheng, Longyan, Taizhou Jiangyan district and other places introduced the relaxation policy of provident fund. On April 21, Suzhou issued a new policy on provident fund: for the first time, the personal quota was increased from 450000 to Shanghai Pudong Development Bank Co.Ltd(600000) , and the household quota was increased from 700000 to 900000 (this policy is not applicable to the Industrial Park temporarily). Since the second half of 2021, the property market in Suzhou has been cold. The relaxation of the accumulation fund and the relaxation of the purchase and sale restriction on April 11 (in terms of purchase restriction, the social security has been adjusted from 2 consecutive years to 2 consecutive years, without continuity; in terms of sale restriction, the sale restriction of second-hand houses has been changed from 5 years to 3 years), and the increase of the amount of provident fund loans is conducive to reducing the financial pressure of property buyers, promoting the expectation of property buyers from weak to strong, accelerating the replacement cycle, and driving the recovery of the new housing market, It reflects the strong will of the government to stabilize the property market.
Zhou's view: in 2022, the policy warm wind blows frequently, and the relaxation of real estate expands from the third and fourth tier cities to the second tier. The strength is continuously strengthened, and even breaks through the purchase and sale restrictions. The economy is unstable and relaxed, and there are still high expectations for improvement in policies. The key to market recovery lies in the improvement of credit and liquidity problems of real estate enterprises on the supply side. Recently, the central bank and the CSRC, Nanjing and Kunming released signals to relax the supply of real estate funds. Although the epidemic has hindered the transmission of the relaxation policy, the relaxation effect is still accumulating, the stock price direction is still upward, and the industry opportunities are greater than individual stocks. In the medium and long term, with the contraction of venture real estate enterprises, the head company will get more opportunities for resource integration.
