Goldman Sachs commented that the business portfolio of the Chinese infrastructure stocks under its coverage tends to be highly skewed towards construction contracting. Among those names, CHINA RAIL CONS (01186.HK), CHINA RAILWAY (00390.HK) and CHINA CONS ENGINEERING (601668.SH) have exposure to property development business.

With China's fiscal policy likely becoming less expansionary entering 2023, new order growth for infrastructure names will likely decelerate from double digits to new single digits this year.
