2025-12-15 01:55Summary of Conference Call Records Industry Overview - The engineering machinery industry is entering its third cycle, expected to start in September 2024 and last for five years, currently in its first year. The market is benefiting from the second-hand machinery and mining excavator sectors, with an anticipated valuation switch next year leading to a 25%-30% return. Leading blue-chip stocks are expected to show strong certainty, while low-valuation stocks have greater elasticity [1][3] Key Insights and Arguments - In 2025, the shipbuilding sector's new order volume is projected to decline by 45% year-on-year, but falling steel prices are reducing shipyard costs, thereby enhancing profitability. Global ship delivery capacity is approximately 120 million deadweight tons, aligning well with order volumes, indicating a positive outlook for the sector. Some private enterprises have already reported performance improvements [1][5] - The offshore engineering sector is benefiting from US dollar interest rate cuts, which are expected to ease high-debt projects. The rising industry sentiment is creating opportunities for replenishment [1][5] - The cyclical sector is viewed more optimistically compared to the growth sector, which has seen significant valuation increases. The company maintains that growth remains a core theme while being more positive about the cyclical sector [2][3] Additional Important Content - The cyclical sector's certainty is lower than that of engineering machinery and shipbuilding, with unclear domestic market conditions. However, companies related to humanoid robots are experiencing high valuations. The potential for valuation increases in low-positioned stocks is significant, but their ability to sustain current valuations depends on the progress of humanoid robot market dynamics and overall recovery [1][6] - The AI industry chain, particularly humanoid robots, is a key focus area. Breakthroughs in self-iterative data capabilities could lead to a significant advancement in human-machine interfaces. Other vertical applications such as smart sewing machines, smart welding, unmanned agricultural machinery, and mining trucks, as well as data centers and computing power centers, are also clear beneficiaries. The AI industry chain continues to accelerate without visible ceilings [1][7] Recommended Stocks - In the engineering machinery sector, recommended stocks include SANY Heavy Industry, XCMG, Zoomlion, LiuGong, and Hengli Hydraulic. For beneficiaries of US dollar interest rate cuts, China International Marine Containers (CIMC) is recommended. In the AI vertical application space, Czech Aviation is highlighted, while in the humanoid robot sector, Weichuang Electric and Hengli are recommended. Additionally, companies in the photovoltaic lithium battery sector such as Aotewi and New Navigation are included [1][8]
