In the first half of the year, the overall trend of the industry is not optimistic. The problems such as increased inventory pressure and rising cost cost have resulted in a decline in profits. Due to insufficient demand and a high base in the first half of 2011, the performance of the semi annual report has slowed down.

From the perspective of the development of the sub sectors, the outdoor industry and high-end brand home textiles still maintain a relatively high growth rate.

Mid end brand

The competition is more intense. At present, from the extension expansion to the meticulous management endogenous development stage, the current development is more robust.

Domestic leisure brands are hit at the two ends: the impact of the international fast fashion brand is upwards, and it is affected by the electricity supplier. It is worth noting that the leisure brands rooted in the three or four line cities are gratifying, especially the three or four line economic impact.

Textile manufacturing industry is squeezed by the profits of the upstream and downstream industries, with low profit margins and greater cost.

There is no marked improvement in terminal demand.

We remain cautious in the second half.

We propose to focus on brand retailers with good fundamentals, better annual performance, better growth and low valuation.
