With the implementation of large-scale equipment renewal policies and real estate financial policies, domestic demand is gradually recovering; overseas, domestic enterprises are laying out overseas pre-sales and after-sales networks, establishing local production capacity abroad, entering an acceleration phase of globalization, gradually increasing market penetration, and effectively smoothing domestic and international cycles.
It is recommended to pay attention to leading machinery and equipment enterprises that have a deep overseas layout, high brand recognition, a complete product matrix, efficient cost expenses, and strong research and development capabilities.
