Investment advice
This week, the food and beverage sector fell along with the market as a whole, and the performance of Baijiu sector was relatively stable, boosted by the performance of Kweichow Moutai Co.Ltd(600519) . In the first quarter of this year, the food and beverage sector continued its downward trend as a whole. With the opening of the US dollar interest rate hike cycle and geopolitical factors, the liquidity disturbance caused by northward funds has suppressed the formation of the sector. In addition, the repeated epidemic and the slow recovery trend of consumption have led to fluctuations in market sentiment, while in terms of fundamentals, the industry as a whole is still facing upward pressure on costs. In April, with the continuous adjustment of the sector, the valuation of some leading segments has been close to the low point in the past decade, and the investment value has appeared. The demand for quick-frozen food and prefabricated vegetables under the catalysis of the epidemic has increased, making the sector open the short-term repair market. At the current time point, we believe that each fine molecule industry has configuration value, and we suggest continuous attention. In terms of sectors, high-end Baijiu with greater certainty is still recommended. In terms of popular products, it is suggested to select the dairy industry with downward cost determination during the year and the beer sector with relatively better competition pattern and smoother pressure transmission. The beer sector will continue to benefit from the gradual recovery of consumption scenes after the epidemic, with the positive impact of price increase and high-end products, and high growth is expected. To sum up, we temporarily give the industry a “neutral” investment rating, and recommend Kweichow Moutai Co.Ltd(600519) ( Kweichow Moutai Co.Ltd(600519) ), Angel Yeast Co.Ltd(600298) ( Angel Yeast Co.Ltd(600298) ), Chongqing Fuling Zhacai Group Co.Ltd(002507) ( Chongqing Fuling Zhacai Group Co.Ltd(002507) ), Chongqing Brewery Co.Ltd(600132) ( Chongqing Brewery Co.Ltd(600132) ) and Inner Mongolia Yili Industrial Group Co.Ltd(600887) ( Inner Mongolia Yili Industrial Group Co.Ltd(600887) ).
