According to the CITIC Construction Investment Research Report, in the second half of 2023 and the first quarter of 2024, the overall growth rate of the pharmaceutical industry was under pressure. However, there is no shortage of structural highlights, such as improving the profitability of APIs in the first quarter of 2024 and exceeding expectations under the high OTC base of some traditional Chinese medicines. Beginning in the second quarter of 2024, some high base factors gradually weakened, and enterprises gradually adapted to operating under the new normal of compliance. The overall growth rate is expected to gradually stabilize. Looking at the second half of the year, considering the low base of in-hospital sales for the same period last year, the overall growth rate will be better than in the first half of the year.

According to the CITIC Construction Investment Research Report, market sentiment fell first and then rose in April. Market sentiment suffered a severe setback on the 16th and almost fell into the panic zone. Beginning on the 26th, the sentiment index rose markedly and sent out buying signals, prompting opportunities to go long on A-shares. Looking at the short term, the early market shortfall has basically been digested, and enthusiasm for going long is rising. Although the period of the fastest rise in the sentiment index may have passed, there is still room for further improvement in market sentiment in May. Over the long term, market sentiment improved markedly after the Spring Festival this year. The highs and lows of this round of sentiment were higher than before, reflecting that market expectations are improving against the backdrop of improved micro-liquidity.
