一 、库存周期的本质 ： 供需错配的动态平衡 白酒库存周期的本质是 供给刚性与需求弹性的错配 。 供给端的长周期属性 ： 高端白酒 （ 如茅台 、五粮液 ）生产需经历制曲 、发酵 、蒸馏 、陈酿等环节 ，陈酿时间可达 3-5 年 ， 导致产能释放存在明显滞后性13 。这种 " 生产 - 库存 - 销售 " 的长链条使得企业难以快速响应市场需 求变化 ，容易积累库存压力 。例如 ，泸州老窖因 2020 年技改新增 10 万吨产能 ，半成品酒库存从 2018 年的 46.96 亿元增至 2024 年的 123 亿元 。而中低端白酒生产周期较短 （ 如五粮液系列酒基 酒仅需 81 天 ），库存周转相对灵活 ，但受价格敏感型需求波动影响更大 。 长按即可参与 风险提示：本文所提到的观点仅代表个人的意见，所涉及标的不作推荐，据此买卖，风险自负。 作者： 资悟堂 来源：雪球 " 白酒行业的库存周期是生产刚性 、需求弹性 、渠道博弈 、政策调控等多因素共同作用的结果 。当 前行业处于主动去库后期 ，预计 2025 年末逐步进入补库 ，但价格带分化 、集中度提升 、消费分层 等结构性变革将重塑竞争格局 。企业需通过品牌护城河 ...
