Core Viewpoint - The white liquor sector continues to show weak rebound momentum due to persistent demand-side issues, with the Wind white liquor index rising only 0.78% this week, significantly lower than the Shanghai and Shenzhen indices [1] Industry Summary - The white liquor sector is transitioning from a volume-price logic to a share logic, leading to weakened growth potential for most stocks in the sector.

Jinshiyuan reported significant operational difficulties, indicating that the industry is unlikely to see a turnaround in the short term [4][5] Company-Specific Summary - *ST Yanshi and *ST Yedao have experienced significant stock price fluctuations due to restructuring expectations, with market speculation evident [3] - *ST Yanshi's actual controller is under criminal investigation, which may lead to a change in company control if the judicial disposition of his shares occurs. *ST Yedao is backed by state-owned assets in Haikou, with the CSRC supporting state-led restructuring of troubled companies [4] - Jinshiyuan has reported a decline in terminal sales growth in June and July compared to April and May, primarily due to policy factors and seasonal influences.
