The company may rely on non real estate business to quickly get out of the dilemma. In 2022, there is a strong certainty that the capital construction end will make efforts to achieve “stable growth”. Waterproof is close to the early cycle variety of construction, and the company is expected to benefit from the recovery of growth rate of capital construction investment. At present, the bad debt provision in the industry is not sufficient, and the bad debt risk is worthy of attention.

Key sub industry tracking:

Glass: as of January 14, the average price of the latest glass in China was 2054.9 yuan / ton, a month on month decrease of 1.48% compared with the previous week. The market just needs to accelerate the decline, the demand for goods preparation is OK, and some regions turn to stock out. Futures prices rebounded significantly this week, and the main contracts rose by 13.3% this week. Due to the changes in demand expectations after the Spring Festival, the futures trend is more violent, and the futures price has been higher than the spot price in some regions. The total inventory of production enterprises in key monitoring provinces was 38.3 million weight boxes, an increase of 1.7% over last week, and the growth rate slowed down. Near the end of January this year, the Spring Festival and the Winter Olympic Games will be held and enter the dual node of environmental protection control period. It is expected that the cost of replacing coal with gas in Shahe production line may rise further, which will support the price. At present, we have entered the layout window period, and continue to focus on recommending Zhuzhou Kibing Group Co.Ltd(601636) integrated leading Lutheran glass, which has entered a new growth period and has continuously increased its market share.

Continue to recommend Anhui Conch Cement Company Limited(600585) as the leader in the cement industry and Huaxin Cement Co.Ltd(600801) with improved logic in the beneficiary areas.

Consumer building materials: the leading performance indicates that the main logic of the increase in market share remains unchanged, and the sector is expected to stabilize, but attention should be paid to the impact of bad debt provision on performance, and consumer building materials enterprises with a high proportion of leading and retail end are preferred. Lengthening the time line, the logic that the market share of consumer building materials enterprises continues to increase is still the main line of investment in the building materials industry, and the growth attribute of the industry leader has not changed. Continue to recommend Beijing Oriental Yuhong Waterproof Technology Co.Ltd(002271) , Guangdong Kinlong Hardware Products Co.Ltd(002791) , Zhejiang Weixing New Building Materials Co.Ltd(002372) , Skshu Paint Co.Ltd(603737) and China Liansu.
