Spectacular comeback The new boom in the solar industry

As of: 06/24/2021 8:03 a.m.

After years of decline and bankruptcies, the solar industry in Germany is experiencing a comeback. Even solar cells are being produced again in this country. Help is also coming from the coalition.

While the expansion of wind turbines is stalling, photovoltaic systems are enjoying ever greater popularity. In a tender in March, the Federal Network Agency was literally overrun with applications. There were more than twice as many interested parties as expected. Much to the delight of the Union and the SPD, who are agreed on an immediate program for energy and climate protection shortly before the summer break . After the federal cabinet yesterday given the green light has, the package should to be passed by the Bundestag today . According to this, the tender volumes for photovoltaic systems will be increased by 4.1 gigawatts to six gigawatts from next year. In the future, the municipalities will also be able to participate financially in photovoltaic areas. Until now, this was only possible with wind turbines. The Union and the SPD could not agree on a solar obligation for new buildings. Consumer advocates and the Haus und Grund association had heavily criticized the plans.

Mega boom in the solar industry

Solar systems were already very popular last year. According to the Bundesverband Solarwirtschaft (BSW), a quarter more solar systems were installed on German roofs than in the previous year, exactly 184,000, with an output of around 4.9 gigawatts. No other form of energy grew faster in power generation. However, pull-forward effects probably also contributed to this. In the spring there was still uncertainty about the continued existence of state subsidies, plus the temporarily reduced value added tax.

Almost every tenth kilowatt hour consumed this year comes from solar energy in this country. The Federal Association of Energy and Water Management (BDEW) is already demanding that new solar systems with an output of at least ten gigawatts (GW) be installed every year by 2030. “We need a solar boom,” said BDEW chairwoman Kerstin Andreae recently to “Handelsblatt”.

Again solar cells from Bitterfeld

The domestic production of solar modules is celebrating an unexpected comeback these days. Solar cells are being produced again in Germany, in what was once the “Solar Valley” near Bitterfeld in Saxony-Anhalt. The Swiss company Meyer Burger recently opened a new plant here, which will be ramped up these days.

“At the historic Solar Valley solar location, we are setting a milestone on Europe’s path to more strategic independence in the key technology of photovoltaics,” said CEO Gunter Erfurt at the opening on May 18th. In the highly automated operation, up to 200,000 solar cells are expected to roll off the production line every day. In a first step, an annual capacity of 400 megawatts is planned. It should be five gigawatts by 2026.

Next door, the solar company Q-Cells, which belongs to the South Korean Hanwha Group, is expanding its location in Bitterfeld and intends to invest a good 140 million euros in the research and development of new, low-resource solar modules by 2023. Q-Cells was once one of the largest photovoltaic manufacturers in Europe, but was ousted by Chinese competition and had to file for bankruptcy in 2012 before the Koreans bought it.

The lucrative business with solar parks

In fact, the manufacture of solar panels plays a rather subordinate role in the rebirth of the industry. The most important players in the new boom are now operators and developers of solar parks, above all the Hamburg company Encavis, which has now been included in the MDAX share index. The electricity provider, formerly known as “Capital Stage AG”, acquires and operates solar power plants and (onshore) wind parks in Germany and other European countries – with success, as the latest outlook shows. The result this year is expected to increase more than twice as fast as in 2020. Sales are expected to grow to over 320 million euros, thanks to two newly connected solar parks in Spain with a maximum production capacity of 200 and 300 megawatts each. The regular income that such a business model generates has not escaped other entrepreneurs.

Is a new IPO imminent with BEE?

Five years ago, a dozen Encavis managers decided to start their own company. With financial help from the entrepreneurial family Wacker (Wacker Chemie) and the former publishing family Jahr, the wind and solar park operator Blue Elephant Energy (BEE) was created. The company controls systems with a combined output of 1.1 gigawatts. Projects of a similar size are being planned. BEE achieved an operating result (Ebitda) of more than 60 million euros last year with a turnover of over 80 million euros. Because of the unusually high margin and the industry’s growth prospects, there is even speculation that the Hamburg-based company will go public. The company could earn 150 million euros, insiders reported to the Reuters news agency. After that, the issue could be implemented this summer, if possible in July. The company does not comment on the speculation. But company boss Felix Goedhart is quoted by the “Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung” as saying: “Our operating profit margin of 74 percent with low risk should be interesting for investors.”

Solar power from Mecklenburg for VW

Climate protection and the goal of the EU Commission to make Europe the first climate-neutral continent by 2050 are generating more and more alliances between a wide variety of companies. The Hamburg asset manager Luxcara has acquired a solar park in Mecklenburg and commissioned the energy giant RWE to market it. RWE will supply the car manufacturer Volkswagen with electricity from next year. The system has a total capacity of 170 million kilowatt hours of electricity per year, which makes it one of the largest solar projects in Germany

Balance for 2020 Decline among Germans Arms exports

Status: 16.06.2021 2 p.m.

The federal government approved fewer exports of German armaments last year than in the previous year. For controversial exports to Egypt, however, millions again flowed. German companies that sell armaments abroad need a permit. These are summarized in the annual arms export report, which was the subject of the Federal Cabinet meeting today. Accordingly, significantly less armaments were sold abroad in the corona crisis year 2020 than in the previous year. 2019 was still a record year for the German arms industry: the German government had approved exports of weapons, submarines and tanks worth around eight billion euros. In comparison, the total was significantly lower last year at around 5.8 billion. Of course, the sum also fluctuates because in some years major projects are approved, in others not. Around half of the arms exports approved last year are intended for EU or NATO countries, or for countries that are on an equal footing with them, such as Japan, Switzerland or Australia.

Sale to Egypt under fire

More than half of the export licenses went to so-called third countries. Armaments from Germany should actually only go to these states in exceptional cases. Expressed as a sum, the export of goods worth almost three billion euros to such third countries was approved in the past. These include in particular Egypt, which ordered submarines and patrol ships from German shipyards worth around 764 million euros – according to the report by the Federal Ministry of Economics, the highest approved value among exports to third countries last year. Exports to Egypt are criticized by the churches, among others, because of allegations of human rights violations.

07/01/2021

In some war and crisis regions no weapons are delivered, for example Ukraine. The federal government recently had the advance of the Greens leader Robert Habeck refused for the delivery of defensive weapons. Arms control does not distinguish between offensive and defensive weapons.

Decline in exports, growth in imports

According to the Swedish peace research institute SIPRI, Germany is one of the five largest arms exporters in the world. While the sale of German armaments abroad declined in the past year, the Federal Republic increased the import of military equipment by more than five percent in 2020 . Last year, according to SIPRI, Germany invested around 44 billion euros in armaments, making it seventh worldwide. With information from Hans-Joachim Vieweger, ARD capital studio

When visiting the ancient city of Fengzhou, you can look up at the Xiaocai Temple on Douji Mountain in the opposite Qinling Mountains. I saw many temples lined up on the entire cliff, and there are cave temples embedded in the mountain, majestic, majestic and magnificent. So we decided to visit the ancient city of Fengzhou and go to Xiaocai Temple to find out. PS. For the specific content of the ancient city of Fengzhou, you can read my last travel note:There is an “abandoned” ancient city deep in the Qinling Mountains of Shaanxi. It used to be prosperous for more than 2,200 years, but now it is only lonely. As a result, while strolling in the ancient city of Fengzhou, I chatted with the local fellow and talked about the next itinerary. The fellow told us sadly: The big Buddha in Xiaocai Temple has been demolished, and there is nothing to look at inside, so there is no need to spend money to go. At that time, I thought that maybe the fellow villagers saw it every day, and I didn’t think this thousand-year-old temple was rare. It wasn’t until we finished visiting the Xiaocai Temple that we understood why the fellow villager was so sorry… Xiaofan Temple was originally an ancient grotto temple, inlaid on the cliffs of Douji Mountain in Qinling Mountains, facing Fengzhou ancient city across the Jialing River. The ancient temple was built in the Western Han Dynasty and prospered in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. It has a history of more than 1,400 years. The fame of Xiaoba Temple is related to two celebrities. First, Zhang Guolao, one of the Eight Immortals of Taoism, once lived and practiced here in seclusion, and the Guolao Cave where Zhang Guolao cultivated immortals still remains in the temple; later in the Tang Dynasty, Tang Xuanzong used to pray here for blessings and disasters when he avoided misfortune and history. This ancient grotto temple deep in the Qinling Mountains is well-known. The thousand-year-old ancient temple with such a profound heritage has flourished for a long time, and it has continued to this day. Xiaofan Temple is only more than 10 kilometers away from the county seat of Fengxian County, and is on the side of Provincial Highway 212, the only way from Baoji to Fengxian, so it is very famous and has many tourists. When the tourism development of Feng County is booming, this is also one of the main attractions of the county. But I didn’t expect that when we came again this time, we saw a disaster-eliminating temple that was completely different from what we imagined. Before entering the scenic spot, we noticed the signs on the side of Provincial Highway 212 and the big archway in the scenic square. The names have been changed from the original “Xiaosha Temple” to “Fengzhou Ancient City” and “Ancient Fengzhou”. The introduction to the scenic spot in the square only introduces the ancient city of Fengzhou, without mentioning the Xiaocai Temple. Passing through the archway, the square is empty. The fountain sculpture of Lotus Guanyin seen in the travel notes before seems to have been demolished. Buy a ticket to enter the scenic spot, the original 50 yuan ticket is now 25 yuan. The staff at the scenic spot told us that all halls were closed due to the epidemic. Facts have proved that not only that, but the old temple of Xiaocai Temple (Xiao Temple) that could have been visited has been closed, and Guo Lao Cave can only be viewed from a distance. The area was fenced off. The only area that tourists can reach is the Yaowang Palace. To enter the scenic spot, you need to walk across a long chain bridge across the Jialing River. At the end of the bridge, there is a straight staircase leading to a magnificent hall. On the upper left side of the hall is the cave ruins where Zhang Guolao practiced and lived in seclusion. This is also one of the most filmed places in the entire scenic spot. From the ancient city of Fengzhou, we can see a straight stone staircase from a distance. On the stone staircase is a magnificent hall with magnificent grandeur. However, when I walked closer, I discovered that this stone ladder was no longer accessible, and a large area of ​​mud-rock landslides could be seen in the area on the left (pictured below). So we walked across the suspension bridge, and we walked towards the Yaowang Palace. There are lush vegetation along the way, but there are many construction wastes everywhere, and it looks like it has not been maintained for a long time. We arrived at a scenic spot called “Shenquan of Immortality”. There was originally a waterfall rushing down the stone steps from the mountain, but unfortunately it has dried up now. If there is water, it should be quite spectacular! When I walked to the “Pharmaceutical Hall”, it seemed that the momentum was quite magnificent. Although this hall was renovated in 2008, it is said that the incense has been flourishing. The fellow said that a big Buddha was originally enshrined in it, but unfortunately it has now been demolished. When we came, the gate of the Pharmacist’s Hall was closed and we could only stroll around. As a result, in the core area of ​​the Xiaocai Temple that can only be reached by tourists, there is a scene of decay and dilapidation everywhere. Garbage and waste can be found everywhere and discarded at will. We even have the feeling of an abandoned ancient temple in the mountains. Behind the Yaowang Hall, and on the highest point of Douji Mountain, is Xiaosi, the earliest ancient temple for eliminating disasters. “Xiaosi Morning Bell” is said to be one of the eight ancient scenic spots in Fengxian County. But this time, the road through Xiaosi is closed and tourists can no longer reach it. When turning back from the original path of the Medicine King Hall, we stood on the high platform of the Hall, still amazed by the picture in front of us. Surrounded by the endless Qinling Mountains, the Jialing River flows slowly through the middle. Rows of houses in the ancient city of Fengzhou extend from the banks of the Jialing River to the foot of the Qinling Mountains, looking very magnificent. It also relieved our depressed mood. In less than an hour, we have visited all the sights of Xiaocai Temple that can be visited. Speaking from the heart, Xiaocai Temple has a profound humanistic background, and it also has a unique natural landscape. But now it is like an abandoned scenic spot (although it still holds tickets), and it is full of dilapidated scenes. In the square at the entrance of the scenic spot, it seems that the “elimination temple” is no longer mentioned, only the “Fengzhou ancient city” is mentioned. I don’t know what the next step will be for this thousand-year-old temple in the depths of the Qinling Mountains?

Nationwide electricity generation Coal is overtaking wind power again

Status: 06/11/2021 1:53 p.m.

A spring without storms has led to a decline in wind energy. Coal grew to become the most important energy source in the country in the first quarter. At the same time, the demand for electricity is increasing, says Minister of Economic Affairs Altmaier. Electricity production using coal in Germany overtook wind power again in the first quarter of 2021. According to the Federal Statistical Office, a “windless spring” resulted in almost a third less electricity from wind power. According to the authorities, the gap has been filled by increasing electricity generation from coal and natural gas power plants. From January to March inclusive, a total of 138.2 billion kilowatt hours of electricity was generated and fed into the grid. According to preliminary results from the Federal Office, that was 2.6 percent less than in the first quarter of 2020.

Coal, gas and nuclear power dominate

While the electricity in the same period last year came mainly from renewable energy sources such as wind power, biogas and sun (51.4 percent), coal, gas and nuclear energy dominated at the beginning of this year (59.3 percent). With a share of 28.9 percent of the total amount of electricity fed into the grid, coal was the most important energy source for electricity generation in Germany in the first quarter of this year. The amount of electricity generated in coal-fired power plants increased by more than a quarter (26.8 percent) to almost 40 billion kilowatt hours compared to the same period in the previous year. The amount of electricity from natural gas increased by 24 percent to 22.5 billion kilowatt hours. In contrast, there was a strong minus of almost a third (32.4 percent) in wind power: The feed-in of 33.5 billion kilowatt hours was the lowest value for this energy source for a first quarter since 2018. In the two previous years, there was wind power significantly higher values ​​achieved due to strong spring storms.

Altmaier sees increased demand for electricity

Meanwhile, Federal Minister of Economics Peter Altmaier admitted that his department had so far underestimated how much the demand for electricity in Germany is likely to increase in the course of the energy transition. “Due to the more stringent climate targets in Germany and the EU, we have to assume a significantly higher electricity demand than was previously assumed,” said the CDU politician to Wirtschaftswoche. “My house will submit new calculations for this.” Altmaier said that more energy must be produced, “from all available renewable sources: wind power and photovoltaics”. Altmaier said that he would present specific proposals on how offshore wind power on the high seas and other renewable energies could be expanded more than previously planned. For “green hydrogen” for use in the steel industry or the expansion of electromobility, many experts believe that significantly more electricity will be required in the coming years, which should come from renewable energies.

SPD puts pressure on

The SPD criticized Altmaier: “For months now, the SPD and the entire German industry and energy sector have been calling on the Federal Minister of Economics in vain to anchor realistic electricity requirements and a correspondingly ambitious expansion of wind power and photovoltaics in the EEG,” said parliamentary group vice-president Matthias Miersch of the dpa news agency. If Altmaier now announces new proposals, which can only then be implemented by the next federal government, it is “poor” and unworthy of a federal minister of economics, according to Miersch. The SPD had already submitted proposals months ago which, based on realistic electricity consumption, determine the associated expansion paths for green electricity up to 2030 and contain funds for acquiring space and accelerating it. “We could implement this next week,” said the politician.

The Financial Associated Press reported on June 15, Wind data showed that Northbound funds sold a net 5.154 billion yuan throughout the day, of which 5.608 billion yuan was sold for Shanghai Stock Connect and 454 million yuan was bought for Shenzhen Stock Connect.

News on June 15th, the three major indexes opened with mixed changes, and sharply fell after the opening. The index and the Shanghai stock index expanded to 1% successively. The Shanghai Composite Index fell below the bottom of the box, and the ChiNext index was on the 5th and 10th. The moving average was supported, and the Science and Technology 50 Index bucked the trend and rose. In terms of the sector, Huawei Hongmeng concept stocks, which have risen sharply for three consecutive days, opened a callback, the virtual reality sector continued to strengthen, and the chip sector bucked the trend. In the afternoon, the index continued to fluctuate underwater. In terms of the sector, the capital reduction front focused on attacking the technology sector. The front row stocks of Hongmeng concept stocks continued to attack, and some funds returned to the liquor sector. Second-line liquor rebounded. Near the end, Hongmeng concept stocks plunged sharply. Generally speaking, the market sentiment is sluggish, individual stocks have fallen more and rose less, and the effect of making money is poor.

On the disk, the LED concept and the semiconductor sector have the largest gains, and the Hongmeng concept and the textile manufacturing sector have the largest declines.

Hot section:

1. Liquor concept

   The liquor sector fell sharply again on the 15th. As of press time, Yanghe shares (204.000, -7.28, -3.45%), Huangtai Liquor (33.600, 2.34, 7.49%) (rights protection), Luzhou Laojiao (249.860, -) 8.39, -3.25%) fell sharply, Shunxin Agriculture (44.900, -1.13, -2.45%), Yilite (30.900, 0.53, 1.75%), Mogao (8.230, -0.07, -0.84%), Wuliangye (299.260) , -2.31, -0.77%) followed the decline.

   Huaan Securities (5.610, -0.18, -3.11%) pointed out that the price of the liquor sector was volatile and adjusted. On the one hand, the industry was affected by consumption tax concerns. On the other hand, the personnel adjustment of individual stocks Yanghe shares caused market concerns. It is not the first time that the worries about liquor consumption tax have appeared. We continue our previous view that the implementation of liquor consumption tax is less feasible, because the flow of liquor is complicated and diverse, and it is difficult for tax authorities to levy taxes at the end of the sales link. In terms of individual stocks, the chairman of Yanghe Co., Ltd. began to manage all company markets, including sales, worried that personnel adjustments would affect the company’s sales system and reform advancement. Yanghe’s personnel adjustments will not affect the overall development of Yanghe. The company’s overall development is healthy and orderly. Meng 6+ has strong growth and is expected to exceed 10 billion next year. Haitian will return to positive growth. The company’s incentive plan will most likely be implemented this year, driving the enthusiasm of the company’s sales and management personnel. Continue to recommend high-end liquor Mao Wulu, while recommending to pay attention to Shanxi Fenjiu (486.000, 15.75, 3.35%), Yanghe shares, and Shuijingfang (126.130, 3.88, 3.17%).

2. Semiconductor

The semiconductor sector rose sharply during intraday trading on the 15th. As of press time, National Technology (14.650, 2.44, 19.98%), Absen (9.330, 1.13, 13.78%), Espressif Technology (192.000, 21.86, 12.85%), Unimin Technology (9.020, 0.91, 11.22%), Chipeng Micro (90.460, 8.76, 10.72%), Hengxun Technology, etc. rose sharply, Rockchip (129.670, 11.79, 10.00%), Dike (50.550, 4.41, 9.56%) ) Follow up.

Driven by digital economy smart applications such as automobiles, servers, Internet of Things, and 5G, the semiconductor market is expected to enter a three-year-old super boom cycle since 2019. WSTS, IDC, etc. all predict that the global semiconductor market will exceed 500 billion U.S. dollars for the first time in 2021. According to the forecasts collected by SEMI, the average global semiconductor market will reach 570 billion U.S. dollars in 2022. According to ICInsights statistics, the revenue of the top 15 semiconductor companies in the world in 2021Q1 increased by 21% year-on-year. As the storage market enters a new round of upward cycle, Samsung’s revenue in the second quarter of 2021 is expected to surpass Intel to become the world’s number one.

News:

1. JPMorgan Chase released a global market strategy report stating that despite the recent decline in U.S. bond yields, this does not mean that market inflation expectations have cooled, and more likely to be driven by technical factors. JPMorgan Chase advises clients to firmly embrace “procyclical” transactions, and it is expected that “procyclical” transactions will benefit when the global economy reopens this summer.

On May 8, China Sinochem Holdings Co., Ltd. was officially inaugurated and established. Recently, the joint office of the headquarters of the two chemical companies was officially launched.

   Outlook:

   Essence Securities pointed out that the main Shanghai Composite Index continued to trade sideways last week, while the ChiNext ushered in the fifth consecutive week of gains. After entering June, the yield of the domestic bond market has rebounded significantly, restricting the short-term performance of A-shares. The tight inter-bank funding at the end of June may also have a short-term impact on the market. At the same time, a historical review of the 5 major conferences or major celebrations in the past ten years shows that there may be short-term fluctuations in market risk appetite in the first 2-3 weeks of major events and the 2-3 weeks after the end. In the medium and long term, the fundamentals of A-shares in the interim report of this year and the second half of this year are likely to be better than market expectations. Under the background of the Fed’s significant dovishness and the completion of the domestic economic recovery, the domestic bond market yields have limited upward space, liquidity environment and risk appetite The overall factors are still favorable, and the profitability and growth of the company will become the core logic of the next stage of the market.

   Jufeng Investment Consulting believes that the PMI index has fallen for two consecutive months, indicating that the economic recovery has slowed down; the decline in social financial data and the slowdown in the issuance of public equity funds indicate that liquidity has tightened; the market has renewed its search for certainty. After the quarterly report, winemaking, brokerage, and coal have become the main lines leading the rise. After the Shanghai Composite Index rebounded to around 3,600 points, market divergence increased: brokerages, coal, and technology stocks (Huawei Auto, Hongmeng Concept) rebounded in a relay. On Tuesday, after the opening of the A-share market, the A-share market fluctuated and declined. The steel, nonferrous metals, insurance, and coal industries led the decline, and the market had a strong risk aversion. Recently, the A-share sector has been rotating frequently, showing a see-saw pattern overall. It is recommended that investors control their positions and pay attention to high-quality stocks with valuation advantages in the mid-term bargaining.

5G smartphones expected to grow by 130% this year năm The pandemic has changed everything, and the needs of users in the smartphone market have also changed. The strong growth of 5G in countries around the globe also leads to a slowdown in demand for 4G devices, and 5G devices will record strong growth and gain a lot of user interest. The smartphone market has returned to growth from last year and continued to grow in the first half of this year, said Ryan Reith, IDC’s vice president of global mobile device tracking. In addition, the price of 5G devices continues to decrease as 5G Android devices will drop 12% year-on-year in 2021, which is a great pressure for Apple devices as its prices are still higher than other devices. others. IDC also expects growth through 2025, with a 5-year compound growth rate of 3.7%. The smartphone market will not be affected by the lack of semiconductors such as automobiles, computers and consumer technology categories. In addition to 5G Smartphones, IDC also reports on the PC market this year. Desktop, laptop and workstation shipments are expected to increase this year despite ongoing semiconductor shortages. IDC’s new forecast in the Worldwide Quarterly Personal Computing Device Tracker says PC shipments are expected to grow 18.1% to 357 million units this year.

Vietnam is one of the fastest growing telecommunications markets in the region and the world in recent years. According to the General Statistics Office, at the end of 2005, Vietnam had only 15.8 million telephone subscribers, including 8.7 million mobile phone subscribers and 7.1 million landline phone subscribers and 210,000 telephone subscribers. cover the Internet. But only 5 years later, the whole country had 125.9 million phone subscribers, nearly 8 times more. In which, there are 111.5 million mobile phone subscribers, 12.8 times higher and 14.4 million landline phone subscribers, 2 times higher. The number of Internet subscribers increased rapidly during this period with 3.7 million fixed broadband Internet subscribers, 17 times higher than 2005. But after that, the number of phone subscribers decreased gradually, the biggest decrease was fixed phones. In the period 2012 – 2015, the number of telephone subscribers achieved an average growth of 0.5%/year, of which the number of mobile phone subscribers increased by 2.1%/year and fixed subscribers decreased by 17.7%/year. year. In contrast, the number of fixed broadband Internet subscribers is still growing quite high, an average of nearly 16% per year, reaching 7.7 million subscribers in 2015. However, in recent years, the telecommunications market is facing saturation of traditional telecommunications services. The number of landline phone subscribers tends to decrease sharply. By the end of 2020, there were only 3.2 million subscribers, down 41% compared to the same period in 2015 and down 78% compared to the same period in 2010. The operation of the fixed telephone service segment is currently only in moderation, mainly serving agencies, government organizations and businesses. For mobile phone subscribers, by the end of 2020, the whole country has 123.6 million subscribers, which is only close to the number of subscribers in 2015. In addition to the recent decrease in demand, there are also mobile phone operators. The network handles garbage SIM according to the regulations of the Ministry of Information and Communications. The number of broadband Internet subscribers continued to maintain a high growth rate for many years when at the end of last year, there were 16.7 million subscribers, 2.2 times higher than in 2015, an average annual increase of 16.9%. The growth rate of the telecommunications market is also reflected in the revenue figures, whereby telecommunications revenue in 2010 reached 177.8 trillion VND, maintaining the growth rate of over 40% in previous years. By the period 2011 – 2015, post and telecommunications revenue continued to maintain a fairly high growth rate, increasing by nearly 60% in 2015 compared to 2010, increasing by nearly 10% on average per year. In the period of 2016 – 2018, telecommunications revenue maintained a fairly high increase of nearly 8% compared to the previous year, but by 2019 only increased by 2.6%. Particularly in 2020 due to the impact of the Covid-19 epidemic, telecommunications revenue dropped sharply by 13.6%, reaching only VND 315,200 billion. The telecommunications market share is quite fiercely competitive by optimizing value-added services on the number of existing subscribers. In addition, revenue from traditional telecommunications services is also greatly influenced by the popularity of free calling and messaging OTT applications. Decision No. 749/QD-TTg dated June 3, 2020 of the Prime Minister approving the “National Digital Transformation Program to 2025, with orientation to 2030” has made Vietnam one of the The first country in the world to issue a program on National Digital Transformation, which is a favorable condition for businesses to actively exploit the opportunities brought by the technological revolution. With the goal of “Vietnam belongs to the group of 70 leading countries in e-Government (EGDI)”; “Digital economy accounts for 20% of GDP”; “The fiber optic broadband network infrastructure covers over 80% of households, 100% of communes” and “Universal 4G/5G mobile network services and smart phones”, telecommunications businesses, digital businesses there is a lot of room for growth.

Prices of green vegetables and many fruit products continue their downward trend Similarly, in the Mekong Delta, the price of vegetables and fruits also decreased. Choysum is priced at 17,000 VND/kg, down 2000 VND/kg, broccoli 15,000 VND/kg down 1000 VND/kg, bitter melon 20,000 VND/kg down 2000 VND/kg, gourd 12,000 VND/kg down 2000 VND/kg, squash 12,000 VND/kg down 2000 VND/kg, chili 20,000 VND down 2000 VND/kg… Prices of some fruits continued their downtrend.

Seafood products, fresh meat kept a sideways trend, some seafood products dropped sharply. White meat pangasius price 35,000 VND/kg down 2000 VND/kg, giant crayfish 230,000 VND/kg down 5000 VND/kg, farmed snakehead fish 50,000 VND/kg down 5000 VND/kg, tilapia 30,000 VND/kg down 2000 VND/kg… Price of pork leg 130,000 VND/kg, lean pork 135,000 VND/kg, bacon 140,000 VND/kg…

The information and images collected by him are valuable documents to help scientists and experts of FFI discover the world’s second largest population of langurs in Kim Bang forest. After that, Mr. Hien volunteered to join the Community Conservation Team and was appointed as team leader. Thanks to this Community Conservation Team, from 2016-2018, the number of langurs recorded grew from 40 individuals to more than 100 individuals. Stories like Mr. Hien became the inspiration in the Program “Honoring organizations and individuals who have made great contributions to wildlife conservation in the period 2010-2020” in response to the International Day of Biodiversity. (22.5). The period 2010-2020 was declared by the United Nations General Assembly as the “United Nations Decade for Biodiversity”. Photo: vuonquocgiavuquang.vn. The period 2010-2020 has been declared by the United Nations General Assembly as the “United Nations Decade for Biodiversity” in order to achieve a shared commitment of countries to protect more than 8 million species of flora and fauna in the world. threatened to balance life on the planet. “Humanity may never know the precious opportunities of incurable diseases or other beneficial discoveries from nature because many ecosystems are permanently destroyed or soils are polluted. unusable,” said Ban Ki-moon, Secretary-General of the United Nations, calling on all humanity to protect the biodiversity on Earth. The call comes as biodiversity on Earth is declining at an increasingly faster rate. More than 1 million species are in danger of extinction. Human activities have changed 75% of the land surface and 66% of the ocean area. Vietnam is in the Top 16 countries with the highest biodiversity in the world, but biodiversity is under increasing pressure due to human activities and climate change. It is noteworthy that human activities are increasingly seriously harming the balance of nature. To counter this trend, over the past decade, many individuals, scientists and conservation organizations have worked to protect wildlife with a series of research, new species discovery and initiatives, jointly provide many effective conservation solutions in Vietnam. Some newly discovered species include Euscorpiopsis Cavernicola scorpion (in Ba Be district, Bac Kan province) and Vietbocap thienduongensis scorpion (Phong Nha – Ke Bang national park, Quang Binh province). The new findings not only have scientific significance but also have high practical value because scorpion venom is a potential natural raw material for the current and future pharmaceutical industry. In addition, precious tree species such as Moc Huong (Aristolochia), genus Arachniodes,… are also studied for their phylogenetic and evolutionary relationships to serve practical applications. Through research, many plant species with medicinal and production value are identified and have a reasonable conservation plan. Many organizations and individuals that have made great contributions to wildlife conservation in the period 2010-2020 also recognized many initiatives and solutions, contributing to improving the effectiveness of efforts of all levels, sectors and the whole society. association in species conservation. For example, the breeding solution has successfully preserved the white-crested pheasant – a rare endemic bird of Vietnam. The distribution area of ​​this rare chicken is in Quang Tri province, previously there were almost no birds and animals due to hunting, trapping and illegal wildlife trade. As a result, the population of the wild Lam pheasant decreased sharply, the last individuals were in danger of extinction. In addition, the breeding pairing of white-bellied Cao Cat (located in Section II of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora – CITES) has also been successful, serving environmental education. and preserved in the future. Besides breeding solutions to conserve endangered species, other initiatives also focus on saving wildlife. In which, there are volunteer groups that have rescued 100 sea turtles, of which 94 individuals have been released into the sea; or the bear rescue process, bear farming in a semi-wild environment… These efforts contribute to changing people’s awareness of the importance of wildlife in the ecosystem associated with human life. In a recent report, the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) said that 90% of Vietnamese people support closing the wildlife trade market; 91% support the closure of restaurants that sell illegal and unregulated wildlife.

The price of melons dropped sharply and many varieties chủng Similarly, in the Mekong Delta, the price of vegetables and fruits also decreased. Choysum is priced at 15,000 VND/kg, down 2000 VND/kg, broccoli is 13,000 VND/kg down by 2000 VND/kg, bitter melon is 18,000 VND/kg down by 2000 VND/kg, gourd is 10,000 VND/kg down by 2000 VND/kg, squash 11,000 VND/kg down 1000 VND/kg… Prices of some fruits continue their downward trend. Currently, Hoa Loc mango is priced at 15,000 VND/kg, reduced by 2,000 VND/kg, jackfruit 15,000 VND/kg, reduced by 2000 VND/kg, grade 1 green-skinned pomelos priced at 25,000 VND/kg, reduced by 3000 VND/kg, old bananas 6800 VND/kg , jackfruit 10,000 VND/kg down 2000 VND/kg, lemon 10,000 VND/kg down 2000 VND/kg… Especially, currently on the market, melons are very diverse. The price of cantaloupe melon farmers in the Mekong Delta regions sell buckets to traders at 20,000-25,000 VND/kg, a sharp decrease compared to before from 10,000-15,000 VND/kg. The price of cantaloupe fell due to abundant supply and the market’s diversity of types of melons such as long-fruited cantaloupe, round-fruited cantaloupe, orange-fleshed cantaloupe, green-fleshed cantaloupe, etc. In addition, the consumption of cantaloupe in the market The school is also slow because of the impact of the epidemic. Seafood products, fresh meat kept a sideways trend, some seafood products dropped sharply. White meat pangasius price is 35,000 VND/kg, down 2,000 VND/kg, giant freshwater shrimp 230,000 VND/kg, 5000 VND/kg, farmed snakehead fish 50,000 VND/kg, 5000 VND/kg, tilapia 30,000 VND/kg, down 2000 VND/kg…

The decrease in travel demand, plus the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic in some localities, also caused many people to restrict travel, causing airlines to adjust fares to stimulate travel demand. Flights during the holiday season cost up to 3-4 million VND/ticket (one-way), but now only less than half a million VND/ticket. Airfares are cheap after April 30 – Photo: Quoc Thai Specifically, record the flight Ho Chi Minh City – Phu Quoc departing on May 3-4, if usually bought close to the time of departure, the ticket price is very high, but at the ticket office, the price is only 496,000 VND/ticket due to Pacific Airlines exploits, similar to Vietjet and Vietnam Airlines, the price is also in the range of 510,000-525,000 VND/ticket, and there are many flight time frames to choose from. Or the route Hanoi – Phu Quoc before the recognition ceremony, the prices of most airlines are high, at the peak of customers flying with Bamboo costs up to 4.2 million VND / ticket (1 way) but now starting from 3 / 3. 5 fares for this leg are about 650,000 VND/ticket, equivalent to 1.3 million VND/person (round-trip), passengers also have a lot of choices of hours and airlines depending on demand. The route from Ho Chi Minh City to Hanoi after the ceremony is also at an average of 600,000-650,000 VND/ticket, for guests to choose at night flight hours and from 700,000 VND/ticket for guests flying in beautiful time frames; Similar to other flight routes from Ho Chi Minh City – Hue/Chu Lai (Quang Nam)/Da Nang/Da Lat, etc., the average fare is only about 500,000 VND/ticket. Or a special route like Ho Chi Minh City – Con Dao in May, the flight ticket price is only at 2-2.3 million VND/person (round trip), usually this one-way ticket is also about 2 million VND. Airlines such as Vietnam Airlines, Bamboo Airways, or Vietjet Air… still maintain promotions lasting from here until the end of October 2021. For example, Bamboo Airways has a program to fly domestic routes from 30,000 VND/ticket (except for flights to/from Con Dao) that lasts until October 30. Vietnam Airlines in addition to preferential fares also cooperates with some localities to promote tourist attraction. For example, with Ninh Binh, the airline has a free program to visit Thung Voi (Ninh Binh) applied to guests with tickets departing from April 28 to May 31; Or on the occasion of the 67th anniversary of the Dien Bien Phu victory, from May 3 to June 15, this airline will sell tickets from Hanoi to Dien Bien with prices from VND 299,000/way (equivalent to VND 759,000/way included). taxes, fees)… (According to Women in HCMC)

Elephants in the Central Highlands. (Photo source: PV/Vietnam+) Wild animals and plants play an important role in maintaining ecological balance, ensuring Ecosystem are complete systems, contributing to the provision of ecosystem services for sustainable development, bringing direct benefits to people. The strengthening of wildlife protection is one of the most important tasks of biodiversity conservation. A clear legal system, behavior change communication, and effective law enforcement are considered to be the three decisive factors for the success of a conservation campaign. VNA introduces a series of 4 articles “Joining hands to protect wildlife in Vietnam.” Lesson 1: Facing a downtrend According to the United Nations Intergovernmental Committee in the Global Assessment Report on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services, the rate at which biodiversity is being degraded is unprecedented in history. One million plant and animal species out of a total of 8 million species on earth are on the verge of extinction. In Vietnam, in recent years, biodiversity resources are continuing to decline. The situation of illegal hunting, killing, slaughtering, transporting, trading, and consuming wild animals is still complicated, leading to an increase in the risk of extinction of many wild animals in the environment. nature, negatively affecting ecological balance, human health and the country’s reputation in the international arena. There is also a risk of disease transmission to humans, livestock and poultry. Biodiversity is reduced mainly due to natural loss, overexploitation, climate change, environmental pollution from the use of pesticides, plastic products… and invasive species. In which, urbanization, deforestation, and agricultural development are the main causes causing nearly 75% of the terrestrial environment to be changed, causing species and ecosystems to decline. The wildlife trade has also created many consequences, wreaking havoc on the environment, severely reducing species populations with 67% of animals worldwide already in decline. High diversity comes with risk extinction increase According to the 6th national report to the Convention on Biological Diversity, Vietnam currently has about 51,400 species of organisms that have been identified, including 7,500 species/microorganism strains, about 20,000 terrestrial and aquatic plant species, 10,900 species of terrestrial animals, 2,000 species of invertebrates and freshwater fish, and 11,000 other marine species. Many species have great value for conservation, contribute to science and affirm the global importance of Vietnam’s biodiversity, such as saola, silver-backed chevrotain, giant gill, Truong Son gill, striped rabbit, etc. Asian elephants, bison, gray cows, tigers, leopards, star deer, primates, sea turtles and freshwater tortoises… The International Bird Conservation Organization has also identified Vietnam as having 63 important bird areas. important. Compared with other countries in Indochina, the fauna of Vietnam is quite rich in species composition and has a high degree of endemism. Of the 21 monkey species found in this region, Vietnam has 15 species, of which 7 are endemic species and subspecies. Of the 49 endemic bird species in the region, Vietnam has 33 species, of which 10 are endemic to Vietnam alone. From 2014-2018, 334 new species were discovered for science including 208 animal species, 136 plant species described and published in prestigious international scientific journals and the Institute’s Journal of Biology Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology. According to statistics, the number of species and individuals of Vietnam’s wild species is on a sharp decline, many endangered, precious and rare species are at very high risk of extinction. Like the Ho Guom turtle, there are only 4 known living individuals in the world, including 1 individual in China and 3 individuals in Vietnam. Other large mammals such as elephants, tigers, bears, big cats and pangolins are also threatened with extinction if no resolute and effective protection measures are taken. Sao la – a species endemic to the Truong Son range is also on the verge of extinction. Investigation and monitoring efforts to date have not found any populations of the species in the wild. According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature’s Red List updated in November 2020, the number of threatened species distributed in Vietnam is 745 species, including 64 mammal species, 53 bird species, 70 reptile species, etc. 45 species of amphibians and 96 species of fish. The total number of wild species recorded in the Red Book of Vietnam is 882 species, of which 464 are precious and rare animals (an increase of 108 species within 10 years). There are 116 species that are critically endangered and 6 species that have been converted from different endangered levels to considered extinct, including two-horned rhinoceros, gray bull, tapir, otter civet, lilac crocodile, star deer . The 2016 species inventory proposed to include 1,211 species in the updated Red Book, including 600 species of plants and 611 species of animals. Compared with the 2007 Red Book, the number of threatened and endangered species has increased significantly. Big challenge According to the assessment of the Department of Nature Conservation and Biodiversity (General Department of Environment, Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment), the conservation of wild animals and plants is facing many challenges and limitations. . The issue of protecting wild species, especially endangered, precious and rare species has not yet been unified in the approach to management and conservation; management regime for species in different categories. Especially in matters of criteria for species identification, the list of endangered, precious and rare species and endangered, precious and rare species are prioritized for protection. An otter belonging to group 1B, imprisoned in an iron cage, is illegally sold by stall owner Yen Tam in Thanh Hoa, Long An province in 2020 for 10 million VND. (Photo: Hung Vo/Vietnam+) Duplicating the list leads to an overlap in management regimes and makes it difficult to apply legal documents as well as handle violations in practice. Specifically, the three-bar box turtle belongs to the list of endangered, precious and rare species prioritized for protection and is not allowed to be traded, but at the same time belongs to group IIB – forest plants and animals that are not yet threatened. extinct, but at risk of being threatened if not strictly managed, limited exploitation and use for commercial purposes. The overexploitation and use of wildlife resources, deforestation, and conversion of forest use purposes also lead to habitat loss of species leading to increasing conflicts between humans and species in the region. nature. Species conservation programs are approved by the authorities, but in practice there are few resources to implement. The demand for illegal and unsustainable consumption of endangered wild species for food, medicine, pets, decoration… still exists. The illegal trade in these species is increasingly sophisticated, organized and complicated, with elements of transnational crime. Law enforcement is still limited and ineffective due to lack of resources, including physical, human and financial facilities. Remuneration regimes and policies for enforcement officers are not commensurate with the high responsibilities and risks when facing this crime. The specialized force’s ability to fight against this type of violation on endangered, precious and rare wild species has not yet kept up with the sophisticated and professional tricks of criminals. Some shortcomings and gaps in legal documents make it difficult to handle violations such as the lack of regulations on handling exhibits. In practice, it may take a lot of time for the investigating agency, the procuracies or the people’s court, the trial panel to make a decision, or it may also take time to get the assessment results when the individuals Live and healthy wild animals need to be treated and immediately released back into the wild, which is very expensive to preserve until the case is heard. Cooperation between enforcement agencies has improved, but there has not been a close coordination mechanism, no guidance on the investigation process after the arrest of wildlife individuals or products, including: including the process of making and transferring dossiers from customs, border guards and forest rangers to the police, assessment agencies, procuracies and courts; handling wild animals and their parts after confiscation. In addition, the awareness of the whole society towards species conservation, biodiversity conservation has been improved, but there are still many limitations. Some parts of the people still have a high demand to use endangered wildlife, leading to increased hunting, trading and consumption. Awareness of all levels and branches has been raised, but not enough and not drastically to contribute to the conservation of endangered, precious and rare species effectively and comprehensively. Deputy Director of the Center for Education for Nature (Vietnam Union of Science and Technology Associations) Bui Thi Ha said that corruption is also a big obstacle to wildlife law enforcement efforts because there are With the help of a number of corrupt officials, many criminals have been and are blatantly committing crimes without fear of being discovered, arrested, put on trial or facing punishment. prison./.

Following the above decrease, the price of thin pork (wholesale pig/jaw) of grades 1 and 2 also dropped sharply by about 12,000-15,000 VND/kg, to 85,000 VND/kg grade 1 and 78,000 VND/kg grade 2, respectively. However, the price of mixed pork belly has not decreased much, only about 5,000 VND/kg. Specifically, the previous sausage from 90,000 VND/kg to 85,000 VND/kg; drumstick drumsticks 85,000 VND/kg to 80,000 VND/kg, lean chips 110,000 VND/kg to 105,000 VND/kg. Particularly, young ribs still keep the price of 150,000 VND/kg, while before it was at 145,000 VND/kg. Explaining the above disproportionate price reduction, Mr. Tien said that normally, when the price of pigs goes down, the price of thin pigs will also drop directly, even if the reduction is more than the price of live pigs. Particularly, mixed pork usually does not decrease immediately, but gradually, on the contrary, the increase will also be gradual because traders and traders have signed contracts with each other in advance for a fixed period of time. Retail pork prices are still high, making consumers wonder. That is also the reason why small traders in some retail markets said that the price of pork of all kinds they sold has not decreased much, some places only decreased by about 5,000 – 10,000 VND/kg. Co Nhi, a small pork trader at Go Vap market (HCMC), said that for more than a week now, she has been importing wholesale pork at a high, unchanged price, about 117,000 – 125,000 VND/kg. Therefore, the retail price of pork remains high: young ribs 180,000-190,000 VND/kg, bacon 155,000 – 160,000 VND/kg, thighs 110,000 – 120,000 VND/kg… “The wholesale price of pork has not decreased, so I still keep the selling price. Prices of ham, ribs, and bacon are still high, so customers buy less and consumption is slow. Accordingly, the amount of imported goods also decreased from 100 kg/day to only 40 kg/day. Only when the wholesale price of imported pork and snakehead meat decreases, the retail price will decrease accordingly, which can stimulate buyers to increase pork consumption again,” Ms. Nhi said. Mr. Nguyen Dang Phu – Deputy General Director of Vietnam Vissan Animal Industry Joint Stock Company, also assessed that the sales force for pork products is currently very slow, the company has to reduce the price of all kinds of young ribs and cutlets by 15%. , pork belly pulled ribs… to stimulate purchasing power. Meanwhile, in the same market, the price of pork varies from place to place. At Base Market 26A (Go Vap District, some stalls quote the price of young ribs VND 165,000/kg, bacon 120,000 VND/kg, thighs 100,000 VND/kg… But another stall is not far away, the seller quoted the price. higher than 20,000 – 25,000 VND/kg, specifically: 180,000 VND/kg baby ribs, 140,000 VND/kg bacon, 120,000 VND/kg thighs… As explained by the small traders, the retail price of pork depends on each market, both wholesale and retail markets. At the beginning of the session (3 – 4 am) pork prices will be high and prices will decrease at the end of the session (6 – 7 am). Some retail sellers will watch out for wholesale markets to import “dropped goods” at cheap prices and sell cheaply to push goods; and those who import goods early, the meat is delicious, the price is higher, so they are forced to retail at a high price. “This whole week, I imported thin pigs with a constant price of 105,000 VND/kg, not 78,000 – 85,000 VND/kg. Not to mention, the purchasing power is slow, there is still a lot of meat left in the afternoon so I have to sell it all cheaply to the shops; The price at the beginning of the session, at the end of the session, is not much profit,” explained Ms. Thuyen – selling pork at Cho Base 26A. As noted by us, meat prices at some slaughterhouses also remained high. For example, in Vissan, even after the reduction of pork, it is still quite high. Pork ribs 275,000 VND/kg reduced to 210,000 VND/kg, pork belly 205,000 VND/kg reduced to 175,000 VND/kg, thigh meat 166,000 VND/kg reduced to 145,000 VND/kg… Branded packaged pork… Meat Deli is even higher: thigh 152,000 VND/kg, pork belly 192,000 VND/kg, cutlet 124,000 VND/kg, pork leg boneless 160,000 VND/kg… (According to Women in HCMC)

The coral disappears? The team led by Professor Konstantin Tkachenko and his colleagues conducted a coral survey at 10 points for about 3 years (2016 – 2019). Average coral cover decreased 64.4%, of which the strongest reduction was two corals Acropora and Montipora, which are the main components of coral reefs in Nha Trang Bay, decreased by 80, respectively. 6% and 82.3%. The level of coral degradation in the above survey points is serious. On Hon Mot island, this coral has lost completely or its coverage decreased by 4-8 times. Collecting coral samples on Nha Trang Bay. Observation results, collecting analytical samples at 20 fixed points (2013 – 2019), combining the tools of mapping reefs and analyzing GIS geographic information systems for comparison with 4 decades ago show that , the total area of ​​rich and healthy coral reefs in Nha Trang Bay has decreased from 6.65km 2 before 1980 down to 0.74 km 2 in 2019. That shows, Nha Trang has lost 90% of its corals in less than 40 years. The remaining 10% of the coral communities are in two states: Some remain stable and some continue to decline, coverage ranges from 13 to 50% and species diversity is also significantly reduced. . According to Dr. Hoang Xuan Ben – Deputy Director of Nha Trang Institute of Oceanography, the results of recent research and publication (2015, 2017, 2019 and 2020) of the Institute of Oceanography on the current situation and trend of change The coral reefs in Nha Trang Bay Reserve also showed that the average coverage of hard corals in Nha Trang Bay was 22.8%. The cover of coral reefs in Nha Trang Bay can be divided into 3 groups: The group with high coverage is Hon Mun area reaching level 4 (coverage 51 – 75%); the average coverage group is Bai Bang, Hon Chong, Hon Vung and Hon Tam with the value of level 2 (10-30%) and the group with low coverage are the remaining points with the value of level 1 (less than 10%). . The assessment results at the fixed monitoring points in Nha Trang Bay showed that the monitoring points located in the strictly protected area all had a high value of hard coral coverage and remained stable over time from 2002 – 2015. Meanwhile, most of the monitoring points outside the strictly protected area have fluctuations in a downward trend. Compared with the results in 1994 (over 25 years), the average coverage of Nha Trang Bay corals is about 30%, the current coral coverage is 7.2%. The area of ​​coral reefs decreased from 754ha to 636.6ha (down 117.4ha, equivalent to 13.5%). 9 species of hard corals that are resilient Dr. Hoang Xuan Ben said that the decline of coral reefs in the bay has many causes such as: Exploiting destruction by explosives, cyanide (currently no longer available); environmental pollution (tourism activities, waste discharge, aquaculture …) altering living conditions, appearing diseased corals, outbreak of coral-eating organisms (starfishes) and local eutrophication; coral bleaching phenomenon and natural disasters (storms, floods) … However, the biggest loss of coral reefs is due to the leveling process, construction of tourism infrastructure and people in the coastal and island areas. The leveling not only loses the area of ​​the coral reef but also sends sediment into the sea, causing deposition on the reef surface, causing the coral to die. Over the past time, the Institute of Oceanography has experimented with restoring corals in Nha Trang Bay, has identified 9 recoverable hard corals with a survival rate of over 60%, the average growth rate from 0. , 4 – 6.5mm / month. This result brings certain effects, contributing to minimizing adverse impacts on coral reefs, improving reefs by increasing coral cover, increasing sustainable attachment prices for corals. To restore and create a stable environment for the development of the reef biome. However, compared with other recovery areas in Vietnamese waters such as Ly Son, Binh Dinh, and Con Dao, the survival rate of the recovered corals in Nha Trang Bay is not high. Some of the causes are identified such as: coral damage, competition between species, environmental quality changes due to indirect activities from humans and other factors such as dynamic mode, coral. wounded at the cuts. Therefore, the province needs a comprehensive assessment to have a solution to this problem. VL

Under the feudalism, the Chinese emperor not only focused on handling the main dynasty for the nation’s peace, but also devoted a lot of enthusiasm to the preparation of the thousands of autumn resting places. This is the reason, many princes prepare the tomb for themselves right after taking the throne, especially looking for places to build the tomb. According to feng-shui experts, the emperor’s tomb must be built in a place with extremely flourishing feng-shui features with a view of the river and mountain. In particular, the tomb construction site must be located on the long artery. This is considered one of the most important factors for the emperor’s eternal resting place. Ancient people thought that the dragon is directly related to the prosperity and decline of a dynasty. The emperor is often called the dragon’s leg, so their tomb must be on the dragon’s leg (the main dragon). When the emperor sleeps forever at the tomb in the above position, it will be considered according to the will of God, showing the position and power of the emperor. In addition, the emperor’s tomb on the artery also demonstrates the preservation of power and the flourishing of the dynasty in successive kings. In particular, Huangtou mountain (later renamed “Thien Tho”) in Changping, north of Beijing is one of the famous historical sites of arowanas chosen by many emperors as the place to build the mausoleum. Thirteen emperors including Minh Thanh To, 23 queens and dozens of other concubines were buried at tombs at Hoang Tho Mountain.

On the whole, the current La Cala is experiencing a slowdown in performance growth, the market reputation has declined due to repeated penalties by the regulatory authorities, frequent changes in business operations, and there are problems such as ambiguous relationship installment platforms falling into loan sharks.

In addition, in the third-party complaint platform Black Cat complaints, the financial value-added business “easy installment” spun off by Lakala has been complained many times.

While the malicious recommendation of various routine loans was criticized by consumers, Yi installment was also complained by consumers about the problem of violent collection.

The complainant stated that in December 2020, he borrowed 8,900 yuan from the Easy Installment platform, and after the bill came out, he would have to repay 1,3557.6 yuan and also 897.90 yuan as a security deposit, and the interest was beyond the national scope. And every time the repayment time is not up, I continue to call myself and my family members.

It is worth noting that Lakala does not admit that the company has any relationship with Easy Instalment. It has stated in public response that Easy Instalment is a product operated by the Koala Jinke Holding Company, a subsidiary of Tibet Koala Technology Development Co., Ltd. Cara is an independent company.

Interestingly, in La Cala’s 2020 announcement, Koala Jinke has become a related party of the company.

In addition, it is worth noting that there are reports that many banks will pull Carrara black. Earlier, there was a report that Hua Xia Bank adjusted the credit card scoring rules to “block” 19 third-party payment companies, including Lakala Payment, and that transactions handled by these payment companies would no longer accumulate points. Hua Xia Bank also stated that “payment institutions that do not accumulate points will be updated from time to time.”

In response to this, Lakala responded that the relevant regulations of the competent department are legal and compliant to carry out POS machine business. We have always strictly investigated the behavior of illegal operations under the name of Lakala.

Prior to this, Lakala Payment has been blacklisted by Minsheng, Guangfa, and China Everbright Bank.

In June, Minsheng Bank issued an announcement stating that starting from August 1, 2020, credit card points accumulation rules will be adjusted. Some of the transactions accepted by third-party payment companies will no longer accumulate points. The top three codes of Lakala Payment “822” is on the blacklist.

Subsequently, China Guangfa Bank also issued an announcement that starting from August 2, 2020, in order to ensure the safety of customers’ card use and encourage standardized card use, Guangfa will add a new list of merchants that do not accumulate points, and Lakala Payment will also be listed.

In September, the Everbright Bank Credit Card Center issued the “Announcement on Merchants Not Accumulating Points for Everbright Bank Credit Cards”. Some third-party payment companies will no longer accumulate points for transactions handled by third-party payment companies. Another bank blacklisted Lakala Payment.

In recent years, some cardholders have cashed out through third-party payment transactions and used lower-rate POS machines to brush high points. From this, “wool” arbitrage and other behaviors have been repeatedly prohibited, so banks have resorted to blacklisting and other means.

Relevant data shows that as of the end of 2020, there are 233 third-party payment companies in my country, mainly in the small, medium and micro acquiring market. Due to the large number of market participants, the small, medium and micro acquiring market is already highly competitive.

In addition to third-party payment companies, many Internet giants have begun to turn their attention to this market. WeChat’s Oasis Action and Alipay’s Blue Ocean Action both cultivate and support local service providers and expand small and micro merchants. Meituan is also entering the market through acquisitions. In the past, La Kala could benefit from the increase in industry concentration by virtue of its leading advantages, but now with the Internet giants coming to disrupt the situation, La Kala’s life is becoming more and more sad.

It is worth noting that, in order to consolidate the status of offline acquiring business, Alipay will extend the free withdrawal service of “receiving code” to merchants for another 3 years, until March 31, 2024, and the withdrawal is free, and there is no single upper limit and The single-day cap, which may have an impact on La Cala’s future growth.

However, scientists in the UK have linked the consumption of red meat, such as beef, lamb and pork, to impaired heart function, including smaller ventricles, poor heart function, and arteries. harder. The scientists studied nearly 20,000 people, and found that high consumption of red and processed meat was linked to three different cardiovascular health conditions. Processed meats, such as sausages and bacon, are those that have been preserved by smoked or salted, processed or added chemical preservatives. There is some evidence that red meat alters gut microbiota, leading to higher levels of certain metabolites in the blood, which in turn is associated with a higher risk of heart disease. Previous studies have shown a link between high consumption of red and processed meats, which may increase the likelihood of cardiovascular disease. Hamburger lovers may have to consider switching to a variety of plant-based alternatives that are now more common on supermarket shelves, as well as better for the environment. Last month, a team of researchers from Canada linked the risks of cardiovascular disease, like heart attack and stroke, to the consumption of processed meat. Additionally, a 2018 study found that regular consumption of red meat could increase the levels of chemicals that cause cardiovascular disease by more than 10 times. Study author Dr Zahra Raisi-Estabragh of Queen Mary University, London, said: “Previous studies have shown a link between high consumption of red meat and an increased risk of heart attack or death. died from heart disease. We examined the relationship between meat consumption and cardiovascular health imaging measures for the first time. This may help us understand the underlying mechanism of the previously observed association with cardiovascular disease ”. The long-term study investigating the contribution of genes and the environment to the development of health problems included 19,408 participants from UK Biobank. The researchers examined the association between self-reporting of red meat and processed meat consumption and heart anatomy and function. Three types of heart health measures were analyzed, one of which is blood vessel elasticity, a marker of good health. The analysis is adjusted for other factors that may affect the association, including age, sex, education, smoking, alcohol, exercise, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes and only body mass number (BMI). The researchers found that high consumption of red and processed meats was associated with a decrease in cardiovascular health indicators of all the measures studied. People who eat more meat have smaller ventricles, poor heart function, and stiffer arteries, all of which are signs of poor heart health. Specifically, people who eat more meat have smaller ventricles, poor heart function, and stiffer arteries, all of which are signs of poor heart health. For comparison, the researchers also examined the relationships between heart-imaging measurements and eating oily fish, which is known to be good for heart health. They found that as the consumption of oily fish increased, heart function improved and the arteries more elastic. Dr Raisi-Estabragh said: “The findings support previous observations of the association between red meat consumption and processed meat and heart disease, and provide an understanding of heart structure and function. , blood vessel. It is thought that these factors may be the reason for the observed association between red meat and heart disease. For example, maybe eating more red meat leads to increased cholesterol in the blood and this in turn causes heart disease. Our research shows that these factors play a role in the relationship between meat intake and heart health, but they are not all. The study did not look at replacement mechanisms, the authors note, and admitted that it does not actually cause cardiac dysfunction. “This is an observational study and cannot assume the cause, but overall, it seems plausible that people limit their intake of red and processed meats for cardiovascular health reasons,” said Dr. Raisi-. Estabragh said. The research is being presented at the ESC 2021 Preventive Cardiovascular Conference, an online scientific conference of the European Heart Association (ESC). Dr. Shireen Kassam, a hematologist and senior lecturer at King’s College Hospital, who was not involved in the study, said observational data valuable for several decades indicate eating red and processed meats. increased risk of development and death from coronary heart disease and heart disease. “It’s no surprise that participants who consumed the most meat had evidence of impaired heart function and blood vessels,” she said. Research confirms that we must avoid questioning the role of red and processed meat in the diet and act on these research findings. By focusing on effective public health messages to assist people in eliminating these foods from their diet and replacing them with healthier plant protein sources. This will not only improve human health but also benefit the environment. Huong Giang (Source: dailymail)

Compared with last year’s quarterly report, this year’s A-share listed companies’ quarterly report performance is generally expected to be happy. The reason is that, on the one hand, the base number last year was low, and it is very difficult for performance growth this year compared to the same period last year; on the other hand, the expected economic recovery this year has risen significantly, and the performance recovery of listed companies will also be significantly enhanced.

In fact, due to the special environmental impact in the first quarter of 2020, the data in the quarterly report of listed companies last year did not have much reference. For the market, it is more willing to conduct a comparative analysis with the quarterly report data of 2019. In reality, although many listed companies reported a substantial increase in the performance of this year’s quarterly report compared with the same period last year, there is still a gap compared with the 2019 quarterly report. In other words, if the performance of a listed company in the first quarter of this year is stronger than that of the first quarter of 2019, then for this listed company, the growth advantage is still relatively obvious. On the contrary, it may reflect that the profitability of listed companies is not strong. It is just that compared with the first quarterly report of 2020, there has been a repairable performance, and the performance of market prices will naturally be greatly reduced. As a result, this can explain the reason why some listed companies have announced their performance pre-history, but the capital market does not buy it.

In addition, there is also a phenomenon that the performance of listed companies is growing well. This year’s quarterly report not only increased significantly compared with the same period last year, but also showed signs of growth compared to the first quarterly report of 2019. However, judging from the price performance of the secondary market, it is still being sold off by market funds, which may be related to the high valuation factors of listed companies themselves. Or, in the context of intensified institutional grouping and disagreement, there is pressure for institutions to concentrate on selling.

Since February 18 this year, the A-share market has shown a trend of “killing valuations”, which is mainly concentrated on the white horse stocks in the A-share market. However, from the perspective of these white horse stocks that have been sold by institutions, they mainly have the characteristics of institutional grouping, high valuations and large previous increases. In contrast, blue-chip stocks with low valuations and small gains in the previous period did not show a significant downward trend, becoming the most stable listed company this year.

The white horse stock market’s “killing valuation” is largely related to the anticipated advancement of the inflection point of loose liquidity, which is also a manifestation of partial de-bubble. In addition, as the “anchor” for the valuation and pricing of global core assets, the yields of US 10-year Treasury bonds have soared, which has also accelerated the compression rate of the global core asset valuation premium.

As the white horse stocks occupying a higher weight in the market, this round of irrational decline in the market has a greater impact on the market index. However, due to the impact of many large blue chip stocks, the decline in the market index is not very significant. Since the beginning of this year, the Shanghai Stock Index has performed relatively well in the Shenzhen market.

A shares fell below 3400 points again, and the total trading volume of the Shanghai and Shenzhen markets shrank to less than 700 billion yuan, which shows that the investment sentiment in the market has dropped to a freezing point. As the market continues to shrink, it actually heralds that the market’s turning point is approaching. However, from another perspective, if the major A-share market indexes have fallen below the half-year line and the annual line, and the average daily trading volume of the Shanghai and Shenzhen markets has fallen below the level of 500 billion yuan, then the A-share market may be declared Step into the bear market again.

Over the years, the A-share market has often been characterized by a bull market for only three years and a bear market for only five years. Whether this market curse can be broken this time, there are still certain unknowns. However, according to the current valuation level of the A-share market and the analysis of the economic environment, the A-share market does not yet have the basis for entering a bear market again. Even according to the relatively weak trend, it is difficult for the A-share market to re-enact the unilateral decline in 2015 and 2018, and it is more likely to complete the process of turbulence and bottoming in the form of time for space.

From the overall analysis, although the decline of the market index will be relatively limited, judging from the rapid decline of the White Horse stock in the last two months, the market is more inclined to partially defoam, rather than defoaming and deleveraging. Market. Compared with 2019 and 2020, the A-share market in 2021 will look more dull, and the structural market has become the main tone of this year’s market.

However, with the experience and lessons learned from the deleveraging market in the second half of 2015, at the level of policy supervision, the attitude of the bull market in the financial market may be cautious. However, under the background of the comprehensive advancement of the registration system, the support of a continuous bull market environment is required. Therefore, from a policy perspective, I do not want the stock market to see a trend of ups and downs. It is more likely that I hope that A shares will go out of 2016 to 2017. Slow Bull Quotes of the Year.

Illustration According to Medizzy, health experts believe that consuming such a large number of eggs could cause severe digestive disruption leading to “impaired heart function” because the yolk is rich in cholesterol. The site also highlighted a study that found that consuming eggs daily can increase the risk of death in humans 7%. Professor Yigu Zhang from Zhejiang University, China, said: “Our study recommends eating egg whites and other alternative protein sources to increase the health and longevity of the cardiovascular system. “Increased mortality is largely affected by cholesterol”. Professor Riyaz Patel, a cardiologist at University College London, added: “Most people should eat a moderate amount of eggs in their diet, unless they are advised not to eat for a reason. specific health “. Research by the Feinberg School of Medicine found that consuming 300mg of cholesterol per day was 17% more likely to increase the risk of cardiovascular disease and the risk of death by up to 18%. Most researchers believe that cholesterol from any source has the potential to increase the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Economic Observer Network reporter Zhang Bin, intern reporter Hu Rongyu On the evening of April 14, Gree Electric (000651.SZ) disclosed the 2020 annual performance bulletin.

Regarding the decline in overall performance throughout the year, Gree Electric said that in the first half of 2020, the epidemic will have a greater impact on the offline retail market of the domestic air-conditioning industry. In order to adapt to market changes, the company promoted the new retail model nationwide, steadily promoted changes in sales channels and internal management, and implemented active sales promotion policies. With the effective integration of online and offline, the channel efficiency of the company’s products has improved, channel costs have been reduced, and market competitiveness has further improved. The performance in the second half of 2020 will gradually pick up.

In terms of quarters, Gree Electric’s performance in the fourth quarter of 2020 is exceptionally outstanding. Its 2020 third quarter report shows that the net profit attributable to shareholders of listed companies in the first three quarters of 2020 will be 13.699 billion yuan. In other words, Gree Electric’s net profit attributable to shareholders of listed companies in the fourth quarter of 2020 was 8.476 billion yuan, the highest in the four quarters, accounting for about 38.22% of the annual net profit.

On the evening of April 14, Gree Electric also disclosed its performance forecast for the first quarter of 2021. It expects to achieve a total operating income of 32 billion-36.5 billion yuan in the first quarter, an increase of 11.1 billion-15.6 billion from the 20.9 billion in the same period in 2020 Yuan; net profit attributable to shareholders of listed companies was 3.21 billion-3.8 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 106%-144%.

Gree Electric said that in the first quarter of 2021, the company’s revenue and profit increased significantly compared with the same period last year. The main reasons are as follows: In the first quarter of 2020, due to the impact of the novel coronavirus pneumonia epidemic, and the new energy efficiency standards intensified industry competition, the company’s short-term performance was under pressure. In the first quarter of 2021, the company steadily promoted the reform of sales channels and internal management, implemented active promotion policies, and promoted performance recovery by leveraging on brand, technology and channel advantages.

The Economic Observer Network reporter noted that Gree Electric expects to double its net profit in the first quarter of 2021 due to the impact of the epidemic in the performance of the first quarter of 2020 and a low base. However, compared with the net profit in the fourth quarter of 2020, its net profit in the first quarter of 2021 has dropped significantly from the previous quarter, which is expected to decrease by 4.676 billion yuan to 5.266 billion yuan.

As of the close of April 14, Gree Electric reported closing at 59.92 yuan per share, with a total market value of 360.5 billion yuan.

Vice Chairman of Huawei, Rotating Chairman Xu Zhijun

He believes that as long as the HiSilicon team is still there, continue to do chip research, develop and accumulate for the future, one day it will still be able to solve the current dilemma.

Xu Zhijun also shared the performance of Huawei in 2020 at the analyst conference. Huawei’s 2020 sales revenue was 891.4 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 3.8%, and its net profit was 64.6 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 3.2%.

Xu Zhijun said that in 2021, Huawei will still face challenges, including US sanctions on Huawei, repeated epidemics, and uncertainty caused by geopolitics. For Huawei, it needs to optimize its industrial portfolio and enhance its resilience.

HiSilicon’s self-developed IP, precipitation technology

Due to U.S. sanctions, TSMC and other foundries will not be able to produce chips for Huawei since September 15, 2020. No matter 5nm, 7nm mobile phone chips or 16nm, 28nm (including HiSilicon’s self-developed TWS headset Bluetooth chip), they will Production is prohibited.

Regarding the current status of the Huawei HiSilicon team, Huawei announced its 2020 performance in Shenzhen on the afternoon of March 31. Huawei’s rotating chairman Hu Hou said that the HiSilicon team is still stable.

At the Huawei Global Analyst Conference on April 12, Huawei’s vice chairman and rotating chairman Xu Zhijun bluntly stated that the chips currently designed by HiSilicon cannot be produced, and Huawei’s positioning of HiSilicon is not a profitable department, so it will Continue to raise HiSilicon and continue to do research on chip design until it breaks through the predicament.

A chip design practitioner told reporters: “Huawei HiSilicon still has a lot of measures to deal with sanctions, including the outsourcing of HiSilicon, or the establishment of a production line not restricted by the United States by a company within the United Nations, or waiting for the domestic semiconductor ecosystem. Mature. Combine more points and seek breakthroughs.”

“Hisilicon has subdivided departments, which are divided according to the process nodes and product positioning used. Some departments are less affected, and some departments have a greater impact.” The chip designer said.

A HiSilicon insider Zhang Jun (pseudonym) revealed that HiSilicon transferred the 2020 freshmen who originally designed the chip directly, and most of them went to the computing product line. “HiSilicon’s business contraction is affirmative, and the new employees of the Kirin chip department after July 2020 will also be transferred.” Zhang Jun told reporters.

However, Zhang Jun pointed out that the core strength of the HiSilicon team is still stable. It only transfers some freshmen or new employees to businesses that are not significantly affected by the sanctions based on the volume of business. The core strength of the original team is still doing the key. The basic IP research and development.

“It is expected that in the coming years, the workload of HiSilicon employees will be heavier, and the income may also be reduced to a certain extent. The reason is that under US sanctions, many IPs purchased in the past will need to be redesigned by themselves, and the short-term workload will increase. Great, but this is also an opportunity for employees to improve their abilities.” Zhang Jun explained the reason.

The impact of sanctions on HiSilicon is still relatively large. The decline in business volume will inevitably bring about certain insider changes, and the increase in salary ranks will slow down, and the workload will increase. This cannot be denied.

However, from the perspective of employees, working in HiSilicon is still the best choice to obtain good ability enhancement and career development prospects. “As long as the company is willing to continue to sign a contract with me, I will continue to do it!” Zhang Jun expressed The voice of most HiSilicon employees.

At the Huawei company level, Xu Zhijun also expressed his determination to continue to support and “provide” HiSilicon. Even if HiSilicon’s business has fallen sharply in recent years, relying on Huawei’s revenue and volume in other areas, there will be no major problems in maintaining HiSilicon’s operations.

In addition, I took advantage of this opportunity to immerse myself in self-developed IP, optimize the platform, settle the research and development results and experience, and wait for the opportunity to break through.

Mobile phones are out of stock, Hongmeng IoT is on the top

In 2020, limited by the U.S. ban, Huawei’s mobile phones face coreless usability, and the Honor brand will be split and independent.

However, looking at Huawei’s finances in 2020, Huawei’s consumer business will still generate 482.9 billion yuan in revenue in 2020, achieving a year-on-year growth of 3.3%. This was mainly due to the rapid growth in sales of PCs and tablets, which offset the decline in sales of mobile phones.

“All-scenario IoT devices equipped with the Hongmeng system will become a new growth point for Huawei in 2021.” said Liang Ming (pseudonym), a Huawei dealer.

Huawei’s consumer business still adheres to the “1+8+N” full-scenario smart life strategy. It will focus on the “1” of mobile phones and focus on the “8” (tablets, PCs, wearables, HD, AI speakers, headsets, VR, cars). Machine) and “N” (Pan IoT) growth potential.

Since chips cannot be produced, Huawei relies on inventory to maintain its mobile phone business, and it cannot supply large quantities to the market. Liang Ming told reporters: “There are many popular models that are out of stock, such as the Mate 40 series, which is out of stock for a long time.” However, many dealers have turned to customers to recommend Huawei’s smart ecological products, such as smart watches, PCs, and tablets. Wait.

“The growth rate of consumer business last year did not meet expectations. Huawei’s terminal business has been advancing by leaps and bounds, but last year due to supply problems, mobile phone sales were affected and sales declined.” Huawei’s rotating chairman Hu Hou said, consumer business The slowdown in growth is mainly due to supply issues.

According to data from the research organization CINNO Research, in January this year, Huawei, after the spin-off of Honor, only ranked fourth in domestic shipments. According to the forecast of Strategy Analytics, in 2021, Huawei’s global shipments will not even enter the top five and will be classified as “other”.

According to Counterpoint’s latest statistics, in February 2021, Huawei’s global market share was only 4%, but it should be pointed out that in the past, Huawei’s mobile phone global market share was calculated together with glory. When Honor is split, the chip is still in short supply. Huawei must plan to increase the volume so as to maintain its voice and popularity in the flagship mobile phone market.

From the perspective of consumer business, despite the decline in mobile phone shipments, Huawei’s wearable device shipments in 2020 increased by 50% year-on-year to 43.5 million units, ranking third in the world and first in China. In addition, sales of products including PCs and tablets also increased by 65% ​​year-on-year. Hu Hou pointed out that this partly offset the decline in mobile phone sales.

Hu Hou pointed out that this year’s supply situation is still not clear and it is difficult to predict what will happen to the mobile phone business, but the flagship model originally planned to be launched will not change. The implication is that the P50 series and even the Mate 50 series in the second half of the year are already in the plan. I believe it will still be equipped with the Kirin 9000 chip, and the Hongmeng system will be used for the first time.

In the coming time, Huawei still believes that its flagship high-end mobile phone will maintain a certain lead. In addition, Huawei’s consumer business includes not only mobile phones, but also other consumer products, and it has always created a full-scene experience.

The Hongmeng system is the key to the software for building a full-scene ecosystem. It is a distributed operating system oriented to full-scenarios. It has been used in large screens, cars, and other fields, and will also be logged on to mobile phones this year. Hu Hou revealed that more than 20 hardware manufacturers and more than 200 software manufacturers have participated in the relevant R&D cooperation of Hongmeng System.

“It is believed that Huawei’s mobile phone-based business structure will undergo certain changes to preserve the roots of mobile phones, based on ICT connection technology, and relying on the development of the Hongmeng system to gradually build multiple IoT scenarios such as PCs, bracelets, and smart screens. Ecology.” Liang Ming put forward his own opinions.

Looking forward to the global restoration of industrial chain cooperation

In 2021, Huawei’s two major business directions will not change: one is to focus on ICT infrastructure and act as an enabler of social digital transformation; the other is to focus on consumers and create a full-scenario smart life experience. Huawei is still stuck with the US sanctions and bans, and it also calls for the resumption of global industrial cooperation.

Hu Hou said that in the past two years, in response to sanctions, Huawei has invested considerable resources in purchasing chips to meet customer needs, especially the chip inventory required by TO B users. He pointed out that the industry chain situation based on global cooperation will still be the mainstream of the industry, and Huawei will insist on open cooperation and innovation.

Regarding the current lack of order in the semiconductor supply chain, Xu Zhijun believes that the current shortage of chips and rising prices are due to the de-globalization of the semiconductor supply chain, which has led to an increase in the cost of the global chip industry.

In the past three years, the United States has imposed three rounds of sanctions on Huawei, which have continued to affect and hurt Huawei. The sanctions not only harm Huawei, but also have an impact on global semiconductors, destroying the performance of the global industrial chain, and allowing more countries and individuals to consider semiconductor supply chain security issues. For example, many countries such as Europe are taking measures to increase the autonomy of semiconductors. U.S. sanctions have caused all companies to change from “hoping to achieve zero inventory” to now hoarding stocks under panic, causing tension in the supply chain.

Xu Zhijun believes that the current price increase of chip foundry, the price increase in the next few years (chips, electronic products) is a predictable thing. Sanctions are evolving into global and industry-wide supply shortages, and the future economic crisis caused by it is still unknown.

The current global shortage of automotive chips appears to be caused by the imbalance between supply and demand caused by the epidemic, but the more internal reason is that the system stability of the global supply chain is gradually being eroded. “In the future, it is possible to split the supply chain into the US system and the non-US system. Of course, this is a situation that no one wants to see.” Chen Yuenan, a senior analyst at Jiwei Consulting, analyzed.

Therefore, whether the supply chain can be improved in the future still depends on the cooperation and repair of the international chip industry chain, and it is the essence of restoring the global industry chain cooperation.

Compared with last year’s quarterly report, this year’s A-share listed company’s quarterly report performance is generally expected to be happy. The reason is that, on the one hand, the base number last year was low, and it is very difficult for performance growth this year compared to the same period last year; on the other hand, the expected economic recovery this year has risen significantly, and the performance recovery of listed companies will also be significantly enhanced.

In fact, due to the special environmental impact in the first quarter of 2020, the data in the quarterly report of listed companies last year did not have much reference. For the market, it is more willing to conduct a comparative analysis with the quarterly report data of 2019. In reality, although many listed companies reported a substantial increase in the performance of this year’s quarterly report compared with the same period last year, there is still a gap compared with the 2019 quarterly report. In other words, if the performance of a listed company in the first quarter of this year is stronger than that of the first quarter of 2019, then for this listed company, the growth advantage is still relatively obvious. On the contrary, it may reflect that the profitability of listed companies is not strong. It is just that compared with the first quarter report of 2020, there has been a repairable performance, and the performance of market prices will naturally be greatly reduced. As a result, this can explain the reason why some listed companies have announced their performance announcements, but the capital market has not bought it.

In addition, there is also a phenomenon that the performance of listed companies is growing well. This year’s quarterly report has not only increased significantly compared with the same period last year, but also showed signs of growth compared with the first quarter of 2019. However, judging from the price performance of the secondary market, it is still being sold off by market funds, which may be related to the high valuation factors of listed companies themselves. Or, in the context of intensified institutional grouping and disagreement, there is pressure for institutions to concentrate on selling.

Since February 18 this year, the A-share market has shown a trend of “killing valuations”, which is mainly concentrated on the white horse stocks in the A-share market. However, from the perspective of these white horse stocks that have been sold by institutions, they mainly have the characteristics of institutional grouping, high valuations and large previous increases. In contrast, blue-chip stocks with low valuations and small gains in the previous period did not show a significant downward trend, becoming the most stable listed company this year.

The white horse stock market’s “killing valuation” is largely related to the anticipation of the inflection point of loose liquidity, which is also a manifestation of partial de-bubble. In addition, as the “anchor” for the valuation and pricing of global core assets, the yields of US 10-year Treasury bonds have soared, which has also accelerated the compression rate of the global core asset valuation premium.

As the white horse stocks occupying a higher weight in the market, this round of irrational decline in the market has a greater impact on the market index. However, due to the impact of many large blue chip stocks, the decline in the market index is not very significant. Since the beginning of this year, the Shanghai Stock Index has performed relatively well in the Shenzhen market.

A shares fell below 3400 points again, and the total trading volume of the Shanghai and Shenzhen markets shrank to less than 700 billion yuan, which shows that the investment sentiment in the market has dropped to a freezing point. As the market continues to shrink, it actually heralds that the market’s turning point is approaching. However, from another perspective, if the major A-share market indexes have fallen below the half-year line and the annual line, and the average daily trading volume of the Shanghai and Shenzhen markets has fallen below the level of 500 billion yuan, then the A-share market may be declared Step into the bear market again.

Over the years, the A-share market has often been characterized by a bull market for only three years and a bear market for only five years. Whether this market curse can be broken this time, there are still certain unknowns. However, according to the current valuation level of the A-share market and the analysis of the economic environment, the A-share market does not yet have the basis for entering a bear market again. Even according to the relatively weak trend, it is difficult for the A-share market to re-enact the unilateral decline in 2015 and 2018, and it is more likely to complete the process of turbulence and bottoming in the form of time for space.

From the overall analysis, although the decline of the market index will be relatively limited, judging from the rapid decline of the White Horse stock in the last two months, the market is more inclined to partially defoam, rather than defoaming and deleveraging. Market. Compared with 2019 and 2020, the A-share market in 2021 will look more dull, and the structural market has become the main tone of this year’s market.

However, with the experience and lessons learned from the deleveraging market in the second half of 2015, at the level of policy supervision, the attitude of the bull market in the financial market may be cautious. However, under the background of the comprehensive advancement of the registration system, the support of a continuous bull market environment is required. Therefore, from a policy perspective, I do not want the stock market to see a trend of ups and downs. It is more likely that I hope that A shares will go out of 2016 to 2017. Slow Bull Quotes of the Year.

Recorded at the beginning of the morning session on April 15 at 8 o’clock in Vietnam time, the world gold price on Kitco was trading at $ 1,736 / ounce, down 9 USD compared to the previous closing session.

Gold prices have reversed to go down in the context of investors selling to take profits, although the value of the dollar continues to weaken compared to many other currencies.

Meanwhile, at an online discussion organized by the Economic Club of Washington Capital (USA), some economists warned that the size of government debt is soaring. However, Chairman of the US Federal Reserve (Fed) – Mr. Jerome Powell said this is not a problem to worry about and will resolve debts in the near future.

This information can make financial investors optimistic about the possibility of US economic recovery in the coming time. Accordingly, many people do not put capital into the gold market. Therefore, the price of gold is not strong enough to overcome the resistance level of 1,750 USD / ounce.

On the other hand, some investors are concerned that holding gold could be risky. They sold out strongly. Gold prices sometimes fall over 10 USD / ounce.
