This article was first published on the WeChat public account: the US period study. The content of the article belongs to the author's personal opinion and does not represent the position of Hexun.com. Investors should act accordingly, at their own risk.

Core point of view:

Last week, all sectors except banks and non-banking finances recorded gains. The mining and food and beverage industry led the gains. After the Belt and Road Summit, steel mills resumed production and production was strong; crude oil was affected by the extension of the production reduction agreement; the rise in US political risk caused a resurgence of risk aversion, and the dollar hit its biggest one-week decline in a year. Under the comprehensive factors, the price of industrial products in the mid-term industry has rebounded. However, the downstream consumption boom is generally the same, agricultural products 000061, the stock price continues to decline overall; the land market and commercial housing market continue to cool; only air conditioners in home appliances continue to maintain the previous growth rate. Under the situation that the overall downstream demand is weak, the current price increase of industrial products is unsustainable.

Upstream raw materials:

Saudi Arabia and Russia reached an agreement on the extension of the crude oil production reduction agreement, and the bullish oil price soared. Downstream consumption of base metals weakened, supply differentiation led to differentiation, and aluminum was expected to increase due to supply-side reform expectations. The rise in US political risk led to a sharp rise in risk aversion, and the VIX index rose 15.77%. Coal and iron ore rebounded sharply.

Midstream materials, manufacturing and delivery:

Steel led the black series to rebound strongly. Thread stocks fell rapidly, spot premiums and capacity expectations were strong, and the thread 1710 contract rose 10.3% this week. The cement glass fluctuated slightly, and the cement price increase was concentrated in North China, Northeast China and East China. From January to April, the cumulative output of excavators increased by 73.5% year-on-year, maintaining a relatively high growth rate. The cumulative production of heavy trucks in January-April increased by 10.44% year-on-year, and the cumulative sales growth rate was 10.44%. The production and sales rebounded for 16 consecutive months. In April, road freight decreased slightly to 9.28% year-on-year, and water transport rebounded to 8.7%. The container throughput of major ports nationwide maintained 7.7% year-on-year. The BDI index fell 5.72% to below 1,000 this week. Chemicals rebounded from crude oil.

Downstream optional consumption:

Real estate: land and commercial housing transactions fell. In the week of May 14th, the transaction volume of commercial housing in 30 large and medium-sized cities was 3,753,400 square meters, up 1.62% from the previous month and down 32.94% year-on-year. In the week of May 14, the supply area of ​​100 large and medium-sized cities was 9,803,900 square meters, up 22.4% from the previous month and down 5.14% year-on-year. The area of ​​land sold was 5,703,900 square meters, down 11.33% from the previous month and down 32.28 from the same period last year. The growth rate of home appliance output was different. From January to April, the growth rate of air conditioner production rose to 17.6% year-on-year. The growth rate of refrigerator production dropped to 12.4%, the washing machine dropped to 4.8%, and the growth rate of color TV continued to turn negative 7.9%.

Downstream consumption:

The overall price of agricultural products fell, and the prices of eggs and vegetables continued to fall. The overall downstream consumption boom is average.

Currency Exchange Rate:

The central parity of the renminbi against the US dollar ended six consecutive liters, ridding 174 basis points, the largest devaluation since February 20. The US dollar index fell 2.1% this week, the biggest weekly decline in a year.

[Weekly] The overall downstream demand is weak, and the upstream price increase is difficult to sustain.
