Investment proposal and investment object
We believe that the sharp rise in international oil prices this year is mainly due to market concerns about the interruption of Russian crude oil supply and the lack of OPEC + production potential. In the long run, the contraction of capital expenditure of oil and gas companies in the past few years will lead to tight crude oil supply and support the high oil price for a long time. CNOOC (600938, buy) recently returned to a is the most pure upstream oil and gas target. The company's performance is highly related to the oil price, directly benefits from the high oil price, has the advantage of barrel oil cost, and the output and reserves continue to grow. We think it is worthy of attention.
The conflict between Russia and Ukraine continues and inflation rises. It is suggested to pay attention to the agrochemical sector. From the current boom β Look, the trend of chemical fertilizer is upward due to the tight balance between supply and demand and the support of energy, resources and other attributes. It is recommended to choose the target with supporting resources and raw materials. Behind the high shortage of chemical fertilizer is the inflation of the global fossil energy system. It is recommended to pay attention to Sichuan Meifeng Chemical Industry Co.Ltd(000731) ( Sichuan Meifeng Chemical Industry Co.Ltd(000731) , not rated), Yunnan Yuntianhua Co.Ltd(600096) ( Yunnan Yuntianhua Co.Ltd(600096) , overweight), Kunming Chuan Jin Nuo Chemical Co.Ltd(300505) ( Kunming Chuan Jin Nuo Chemical Co.Ltd(300505) , not rated), Qingdao East Steel Tower Stock Co.Ltd(002545) ( Qingdao East Steel Tower Stock Co.Ltd(002545) , not rated), Qinghai Salt Lake Industry Co.Ltd(000792) ( Qinghai Salt Lake Industry Co.Ltd(000792) , not rated), etc. The pesticide sector suggests paying attention to the globally competitive pesticide enterprises Shandong Weifang Rainbow Chemical Co.Ltd(301035) ( Shandong Weifang Rainbow Chemical Co.Ltd(301035) , buy), and Hailir Pesticides And Chemicals Group Co.Ltd(603639) ( Hailir Pesticides And Chemicals Group Co.Ltd(603639) , buy), Dalian Bio-Chem Company Limited(603360) ( Dalian Bio-Chem Company Limited(603360) , not rated), Nantong Jiangshan Agrochemical & Chemicals Co.Ltd(600389) ( Nantong Jiangshan Agrochemical & Chemicals Co.Ltd(600389) , not rated), etc.
