This week, the sales of new houses and second-hand houses continued to consolidate at a low level, and the local auction market is still hot. The central bank announced that LPR has decreased by 15bp since five years. In combination with the previous document issued by the central bank allowing the interest rate of the first house to be reduced to lpr-20bp, there is great room for adjustment of mortgage interest rate. At the same time, the policy easing has further spread from the third and fourth tier cities to the new first tier cities. We believe that the demand side policy has officially broken through the previous framework of urban policy implementation, and the loose orientation is very obvious. In this policy context, we believe that with the resumption of work and production, the industry sales inflection point is expected to occur in the next 1-2 months. However, we believe that the market repair is not achieved overnight. Low rated real estate enterprises still lack the ability to increase leverage in the short term, which will drag down the rhythm of their balance sheet repair. We continue to be optimistic about the dominant position of leading real estate enterprises in the market adjustment stage. In addition, regional real estate enterprises are expected to have better flexibility in the structural market. We are optimistic about the first-line leaders with stable performance, and recommend China Vanke Co.Ltd(000002) ( China Vanke Co.Ltd(000002) , buy), Poly Developments And Holdings Group Co.Ltd(600048) ( Poly Developments And Holdings Group Co.Ltd(600048) , buy); Second tier leaders with flexible performance are recommended Gemdale Corporation(600383) ( Gemdale Corporation(600383) , buy) and Longhu group (00960, buy).
