configuration value highlights
Zhongtai Securities Co.Ltd(600918) believes that from the performance express disclosed at present, the positive trend of the banking industry remains unchanged, and the robustness is better than the market expectation.

Zhongtai Securities Co.Ltd(600918) it is expected that the asset quality of listed banks will be in a stable state in the next few years, which will effectively build the safety margin of the banking sector. It is recommended to continue to embrace the core assets of banks, as well as banks with undervalued value, safe asset quality and expected transformation success.
Yu Jinxin, an analyst at Minsheng securities, believes that the banking sector can talk about "five logics" in 2022. To sum up, there is room for valuation, which is easy to go up and difficult to go down; The best buy is on the eve of further economic recovery, and the second best buy is now; The market circulation of the banking sector is not large, and it does not need a huge amount of funds to drive the active trading of the sector. The northward funds have flowed in on a large scale in recent one month; Business is still booming, and performance will become a market booster; Progress on the big wealth management track may lead to alpha differentiation within the sector.
Everbright Securities Company Limited(601788) Wang Yifeng's team said in the research report that under cross cycle regulation, the banking sector is expected to usher in a further rebound. However, considering that the upward range of credit scale will not be too large, the upward slope of the banking sector will be relatively flat, but the bottom has been relatively clear. For the follow-up trend, it is generally optimistic: on the one hand, under the cross cycle regulation, the bottom of banks is relatively clear, and the risk of institutional allocation of bank stocks is small; On the other hand, the sentiment of the real estate market has been repaired, and the wide credit is expected to be gradually promoted, which is conducive to the future performance of bank stocks.
